Load development on Wednesday at Dan Ekstrom’s house with a Borden Alpine clone XP-100 center-grip, McMillan stock, Leupold Mark 5HD, Dell trigger built by Michael DeLoach at Nine Run Gun, chambered in 7mm SAUM with the 160 grain Barnes LRX (Norma brass, H-4350, and Redding Comp dies).
3-Shot group at 100 yards off of a portable bench. Extreme Spread was around 9 if I remember correctly.
MV may wind up closer to 2660ish. 15.9” Brux 8T barrel, and Holland brake.
Looking forward to future drop configurations at distance.
Big Shout Out to Dan for his help!
Last target is 11-shots, all different powder charges in 1/2 grain increments.
Yes, I recognize that this is just one three-shot group, but it still put a smile on my face.

A group like that would keep me grinning for a long time! :D
Congrats!
Looks like you should have some great adventures in SA with that hand cannon!
Looking forward to hearing about your adventure. (And the photos.)
