Well, I had to scratch one of the rifles from the line-up this past weekend. I had the Whelenizer out for what should have been a routine check of function and final sight-in. However, it was throwing 180 grainers all over the place, and the measured velocities were well under their target.
This is a project that got sidelined when I got the Cancer. It's been languishing for 3 years now. I've got way too much on my plate to get it ironed out before November, so back onto the rack it goes.
. . . and out comes the Mauser From Hell. 8mmX57, 175 grain RNs . I think I used this last about 2020. I'll just keep it as a safety blanket. I've got 2 other rifles that need blooded with their new loads.
