Ya very cool dude. He was a hellava welding/machine instructor. Had him from 90-93, used to bring guns and parts in to work on em in class, they'd string ya up nowadays for that Schitt!!
Got a 12" #3 hart, 700, and a McMillan hunter I'm taking him next week for a Whelen build.
Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.

Wouldn't a 1-10 or 1-9 twist have done well with the 80 grain BT? That foolishly asked the 85 grain Partition has worked great for me on deer and pigs but at standard 6MM velocities.
