    Bolt action slug rifle

    No, the POI doesn't change from bench to shooting sticks I hunt with. I seldom shoot offhand unless very close shots. I like some type of rest. I found that POI often changes if a guy uses a Lead Sled from the bench. The lack of true recoil due to the Lead Sled seems to differ from actual...

    Bolt action slug rifle

    Here's my Savage 220 F 20 ga. slug gun/ rifle. This gun evolved into what you see in the picture. It came with a plastic black stock that was horrible. It was so weak and flexible that I couldn't even epoxy/ bed the recoil lug without it blowing out after a few shots. The best groups that I...

    Load development at new 100 Yd Home range

    I'll try it when I can find it. It's scarce in my area. IMR4451 at 44.0 gr has worked best so far. H100V not so well. IMR 4350 works decent though. Thanks for the suggestion. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I think that the top target for the .243 could have been a one hole group too. The flyer to the left was the first shot from a super clean barrel. The next 2 were cutting and point of impact. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I built a new 100 yd range in my back yard conveniently locating my bench/ table under a white oak shade tree. I shot 3 guns today to try a few new loads I worked on until 2:45 am this morning. The guns I shot today were: Tikka T3 s/s camo 7mm-08 topped with a Sworovski Z3 3.5-10. Tikka T3...

    The .243 shoots 0.74" groups. I'm still working on hand loads for it. I really like all three rifles. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Thanks for the "welcome" Dr. Mike. There's a lot of good info on this forum and I'm enjoying every nugget of it. It's one of very few forums where folks remain civil to one another. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
