I never thought I'd grow up to be a grumpy old man, but I did, and I'm killin' it.

**GUESSING** they are using H4350 - 41.5gr - 2.810 - Match Federal or equivalent. Correction: that is what I'm using.


Don't ask me about my military service or heroic acts...most of it is untrue.

Sorry I'm late to this. Was just at a Cabelas signature event in North East Wyo. Gun was a Remington custom shop 40X light palma barrel @ 24inches with a thunderbeast break. Average for five was 2655 with an S.D. of 5.4 fps. Ammo shot so tight I had a 1000 coming home before I left.
