But that being said every once in a while I get a hair up my backside. I had heard enough about this one to give it a shot. Bighorn TL-3 McM A3/5 Bartlein 1/8 heavy varmint @26” Bushnell DMR11 3x21 in Seekins rings MDT mag Screwed together by Shaen Rifles here in CA Loaded up some ammo using Alpha brass CCI 450 Varget Berger 105 Started at 31gr and went up in .3 increments to 32.2 Found a sweet spot at #4 which was 31.9 gr…at 2856 FPS Groups at 100 we’re .427 and .256 I tend to not push things too hard so that might be pedestrian velocities to some but I can’t complain She never made it past the bedroom door, what was she aiming for...? She's gone shootin..

Hint. 1-7" K&P at 21",Alpha,400's,Vargay,112 MB .620 BC Smooches and 2821fps with amazing SD/ES,on Accuracy International ATX. Fhuqker is a HAMMER. Folder mechanism is here somewhere,in the Mail. Hint. Need one on a Montucky. Hint. Just sayin'.............. Brad says: "Can't fault Rick for his pity letting you back on the fire... but pity it was and remains. Nothing more, nothing less.
