Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Surprising one hole shooters, what's yours?

I love it ! !

ALL my rifles will do that.

One hole in.......no hole out! Yep, that's a one hole shooter.



Shod

Weatherby Vanguard S2 youth carbine in .243 Win shooting 85 gr Sierra HPBT.

You can see the one hole.



It shoots okay otherwise also, a 5-shot group from a 30-06. But groups from benches mean essentially nothing when it counts.

Damn, you guys got me beat. I forgot to ask how big of a hole is allowed? 10 shots from my CZ 550 American that I glass bedded, 286gr. Nosler partitions, Burris FFII 3-9x40:




Surprising....Nah, it works great on elk too:





My 223 rem shoots pretty good too, but not quite a "1 holer"....:


Maybe if I shot some 3 shot groups, it would be a true "1 holer"...

If PB charged you every time you posted those pics you'd be broke.

All time, Savage 93R17 BVSS in 17HMR.

Recently, RAR-P in 204 Ruger.

That tells it like it really is for me too. And most others if truth be told.

I'll see your 10 and raise you 10.

50 yards.




One got away.




Nula .223AI:

I have quite a few 1 holders...mostly customs. Some sakos not surprising but the biggest surprise was my 88 win in 243. Takes some discipline with the trigger but if I do my part it will touch the first 3.
Saw a guy at the range with a shinny new piece crap rem 710 06 shot a little 1 hole 3 shot group with factory ammo....just not right..

Grandpas Remington 721, in 270. After cleaning good only knows how many years of crap from grandpa using it all over the country, it is a true 1/2" gun with factory ammo.

My CZ 527 in .221 Fireball is an awfully good shooter. I bought it, cleaned it, mounted a scope, and went out and shot several groups under a half-inch.

The recipe was surely simple and easy. 18.5gr. of Reloader Seven, Fed. 205M primers and R-P cases, and virtually any bullet I tried 50gr. or under. Didn't matter whether it was a 40gr. VMax or a 50gr. Blitzking, or anything else. It seems to favor 50 gr. SPSX (old fashioned, cheap, thin-skinned bullets with a soft point and flat base), but not by any large margin.

The little stinker just SHOOTS.

It's my favorite rifle.

5 shots with my 223 and 90 vld's.

20" 376 steyr with 270 soft points.

Way back, I happened to walk into my local gun shop. At that time they had used rifles on a couple racks in the middle of the store along with whiskey barrels full of fired range brass. I'd go in and sift through the brass to find a couple dozen of what I was looking for and fondle a couple used guns. One day I spied a likely looking prospect. It was a heavy barreled Winchester 70 with a push feed action.





Seems the barrel was labeled Shilen, 270 Win.





IIRC they were asking $400. At that time I was so broke I couldn't afford to pay attention. Good looking rifle though. Over the next six months or so I'd come into said gun shop and that rifle was still sitting there in the rack. I asked the manager what was the deal, as rifles usually did not set there that long. Seems nobody wanted this rifle as it had a small hairline crack just in front of the wrist, below the bolt, it was a push feed not CRF, and it had a heavy barrel.





Well it sat there a while longer until I talked the manager down to $350 IIRC, and put it on lay-away.

Anywho, over the years my go to load for a rifle chambered for the 270 Win is a 130 gr. Ballistic Tip over 60 Gr. H4831.

If I've not shot a rifle in a bit, I usually go to the range to check zero, at both 100 and 200 yds.

The following two pix show the type of accuracy this rifle is capable of. First pix is two shots back to back. One can understand why i did not try a third.
The next pix is after a click. One shot a short time later. In this instance, I was not shooting for groups, as much as I was to determine POI at 100 yds, cold barrel. I was satisfied.






Best,

My most surprising is a JC Higgins Model 50 in 270 Win and can't seem to get all 3 to touch. After that is a not so surprising Sako 243 Varmint which I've not gotten to one-hole numerous times and I'm no dedicated marksman.

All my shooters are one-hole shooters - unless I'm shooting shot.

1917 Savage take down 250-3000.
I drilled and tapped for a scope.
I reamed a 6mmPPC take off barrel out to 6mmBR and cut Sav 99 threads on it.

5 shot group from my custom Hart barreled Husky 06..

My 300 WM Remington African Plains Rifle is no slouch either..
