Shot my Mark X Mauser yesterday, 75gr Hdy HP, 2.75g (42.43gr) IMR8208XBR, 2.870" OAL, CCI 200, WW Super brass, 3520fps avg., 17.0 sd. 5 shots in 1.8", 3 of them in .75", at 300 yds. I think this load is a keeper. 4-12x40 Redfield scope, no PA other than centering the image with dark edges, new eyeglasses. I may have to try one of Doug's 6.5-20x44 Vipers to see if this thing will really shoot.


There is no retreat but in submission and slavery!
