Home Forums Hunting & Shooting BPCR New Pedersoli S.788

Guys,
Well, it finally showed up this morning (I've been impatiantlt driving my wife crazy the last couple of days <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />).
Nice looking rifle and pretty figured wood! The best thing is, that it turns out that the chamber must be nearly identical to my Pedersoli Quigley as those fire formed cases fit with same snug fit of the Q.
Using some loaded rds. for the "Q", (80 grs. Goex Cart. & a 555 gr. Lead Zep.), it put 5 rds in 1-7/8" at 220 yds- right out of the box! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> I think that it may be a shooter if I do my part. I'll give it a try at the Rifle, Colo. Silhouette shoot this weekend. Make smoke... Dennis

Kelley,
I doubt it, you do some HARD holding- we both know that it is a tough thing to do- get five rounds down there, tight together. I watched SPG put 4 into about 1-1/4" & have the wind blow the last out to 2-1/2". I kind of like it though, because it is a pure individual effort (no spotter) <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> ..Dennis

We ARE talking offhand, aren't we?

Why yes, how did you guess. You sly devil, you.

P.S. I like shooting off hand and I'm sloooooooooooooowly getting the knack of it.
