    Just an update have loaded up 8 rounds of 55.5gr and 56gr. Considering it only has a 22.5" barrel I am pretty happy with sitting just on or just under 3000fps with acceptable accuracy. If they group...

    Speed isn't necessarily the answer to getting to 300 without the need for turret adjustments or holdover, zeroing distance is also an answer as said above. A 3-9 is perfect for point and shoot ...

    I agree with 30.06king about the H4350. I used that way back in my .270 (40 years ago!!!). No idea of velocity back then...but the BRNO I had would put 3 shots in a tight touching cloverleaf at 100...

    Greetings, Looking through the data a couple of questions present themselves. 1. I don't see any groups mentioned so were these actually recorded and if so what were they? Their position on the...

    I would shoot two more groups each of the 53.5gns, 54.0gns and 55.5gns loads ( on different days if possible ) to see which has the most repeatable and consistent accuracy, then adopt that load for...

    I’d probably shoot a single shot ladder with 2209. 54 to 55.5 and 0.5 gn increments. 4 shots and see if there is a sweet spot and where it sits relative to your 54 and 55.5 gn imr loads. Either...

    If you’re only intending to shoot 300ish meters then don’t worry too much about ES or SD numbers - a 130gr sst doing 3000fps vs 2900fps only has a touch over an inch difference in drop at 300m. Even...

    I would go with the 55.5 grain load and if I wasn't happy with the grouping, ay with seating depth. I would shoot 3 shot groups at each seating depth, maybe 4 if you want to get carried away :pacman:...

    There could well be a breeding pair still alive, but they only live for 20-25 years roughly. The clock is ticking if not the case. Would I shoot one if I saw it? Nah, just let it walk on by...

    How old is the oil, I’ve found fuel economy drops of very quickly when the oil needs changing. Also buy the best oil you can afford. I doubt it’ll make a huge difference but if you check along with...
