Back on topic with an actual field report....
Just returned from the range after shooting my Ruger African for the first time. The cartridge were handloads of
300 gr Partitions
77 gr H4350
Fed 215M Primers
This was a very light load and enjoyable to shoot from the bench. After 3 rounds to sight in, I shot 3, 3-shot groups of 1-1/2 inch, 1-1/4 inch and 1-inch at 100 yards.
I can't wait to start some load development to find one that will shoot!
That's the exact results I've always had with Ruger.
Never really had to develop any loads,just pick one out of the middle of the range in the book,load them up and shoot.
Never even seen shotgun style groups out of any gun I've ever owned.
In short,I simply don't understand.
I have owned quit a few too?
Mike
