We got home before lunchtime today. After unloading, I ran out to Dan Ekstrom’s place to pick up Coco. Dan had done some load development for his six Creedmoor XP-100, and was real pleased with the 100 yard results. Sometime ago, dan had bedded a used 7BR XP that I had picked up used. The manufactured ammo that came with it shot terrible. Like 2 inches and worse. Dan wanted some practice on bedding a XP and there was no way that he could hurt anything. It has a 2-6 Bushnell pistol scope on it. The sling swivel stud was missing, so we just stacked some bags up on the bench on his back porch. It took two shots to get it on paper at 100 yards. I then shot three times.
I guess it was my day to look good. We are now out of this ammunition. And as far as we can tell, this guy is out of business. I have another box of 20, 140 grain triple shocks. Who knows, maybe they will shoot good too.
