    better recoil pad than mine too.
    Me and mate took turns sighting it in but they were only fire forming loads so only pushing 2000ish I reckon.
    Chronied the 340's and startingish load was mid 2500's. That's about 5000ftlbs.
    I looked up the Gibbs and they are getting close to 6000 so that's a definite jump. @Kiwi Greg what sort of loads you running?

    Better than a Khales, but I still like to have a small sight picture so I know I'm miles from it

    Just working up with 525 grain projectiles with 2213 & 2217, very little data around, haven't hit quite 2000 yet....

    Not in a hurry to either by the feel of my shoulder today with the benchrest rifle just barely kissing it....

    This is with the first load that I have tried. 87grn Vmax. Be nice if it gets better with a bit of tinkering but if it will consistently do this im quite ok with it. the dots are 13mm.

    @Dreamer Nice group but what about the leg shot

    I respect your beliefs but don't impose them on me.
