went to the range.....(part 2)

Post by Verminator2 »

Today and found my load, HDR shooters watch out! The load is 27.3 gr. of IMR 4895 behind a 39SBK w/ federal gold primers.

4 are in .195 and 5 are .325, measured by subtracting .195. What kind of groups are other EBR shooters getting? Hopefully this wasn't a fluke.

That's some good shootin' Verminator2, but you haven't scared me out yet. I think I'll still give it a try. I've shot several 5shot groups in the 3's with R10X and 39 bkings. Three consecutive groups are very hard to do. My equipment is up to it if only I can control breathing, heart beat and brain.

I didn't figure I would. Haven't shot any more groups yet so I am still hoping it wasn't a fluke. I know its going to be hard controlling everything. Good luck in the shoot.

Well, I went out this morning to make sure that my previous group wasn't a fluke, here's what I came up with.

5 in .315 and 4 in .151 :D All I need to do now is pull that second shot inside the other 4.

I think the real problem will doing that 3 times in a row. That may be hard to do. It will be fun trying. :D I made some copies of the target so I could practice. My luck, I will do good on the practice and bad on the real one. :(

Good luck.
