The Turdy-Turdy

[RL338]

180gr Nosler AB C-Grade with Leverevolution powder and WRE primers.
I’ve had these loaded up for some time waiting for the weather to cooperate. Finally today it worked out.
First group cold bore , first shot is slower.

Second group shot right behind the first.

Overall I’m pleased with how this turned out. I will admit shooting into the sun was tough. Might tweak on the COAL a bit on the next batch. The goal I have with this is pounding steel at 600yds.

Rick,
Nice work with the load development and shooting. Have you run the numbers yet for 600 yds? How far can you get with that speed before it goes subsonic?
Man, that looks like it would be a fun time shooting that load out to 600 yds.

700 is the limit. Now we all know that Nosler has a times over estimated their BC numbers. With these being those coated Grade-C bullets there could be a variance. The Arken scope has plenty of elevation in it , if it holds up

Good show. I was thinking 600 was getting close

I started hunting with a model 325 in 30-30 when I turned twelve. I got the 325 because they were cheaper than a Winchester model 94, which cost $45.

This little rifle seems like everything I’ve feed it. From cup&core , mono , and bonded it’ll eat them all.
