Bell & Carlson Medalist stock

Timney trigger

Load used was 67 grns RL22 and 160 SGK going out circa 2950 feet

Thankyou Hillbilly

Thanks Grand

I am over the moon Hill with the rifle

with that particular load it averages in the .2's

However on the big woodland reds the bullet performance is less than perfect and I had 2 deflections off the scapula and the bullet went at virtually a 45 degree angle to line of flight after making contact
Am going to change my bullet next year to either a Partition or Accubond. Whichever shoots the best but I would put money on that being the Accubond

I will post "part 2" tomorrow ad I am just out at the moment and typing this on my phone.
