Shooting the Brady Knight 66gr FB's into 0.234" (5-shot groups) @ 100 yds... Not to bad for a 8" twist...:):)
Took this Crow @ 312 yds while he was calling his buddies. Bet that last note he hit was a dandy. Shooting Groundhogs is gonna feel like cheatin with this latest Mickey Coleman Gem...

When did Douglas start to have problems? That's a good question. I'm not aware of any problems just jesting a bit with some of the Internet eggspurts...

The 6mmBR been on my radar for awhile and seeing yours got me really chomping at the bit. Is yours set up as a repeater with the Mike Byrant fix ? If so how does she feed? what powder you using? I'm going to have to give Mickey a call though I hear it's a bit of a wait as he doesn't lack for work.

Owning a well-built 6br is like owning a custom fitted set of golf clubs . . . .YOUR [bleep] OUT OF EXCUSES. Nice rig.

I'm currently using H-322 with the 66gr & 68gr bullets. I'd get on Mickey's waiting list. He's the real deal...

Shooting g-hogs with that number could be cheating.
I do and have done a fair amount of shooting chucks out here in Big Sky Country. My best year I took 457 of the buggers.
Here is what I found, I love to use my hunting rifles for them, and we wouldn't use any varminters so to say.
And chuck out to say 150 had to be offhand.
150-300 we could go at it from sitting
After 300 we could lie down and use the cheater (bipod)if we choose, but we took a serious amount of guff if we did...
Lastly, we got to the point that we would just back up to 450 and start working at them, then we could and would use any rest/next possible.
Nice looking rig, too bad it's wearing a Dougy...grins

Mark D Mark, You 'da man !! I like the sitting position myself but if they're way out there, I'll use the Bipod. Crows usually grt the Bipod from the get-go. I love to watch the black feathers flutter to the ground...;) Infact, that's what I'm off to do. Catch ya later...

Now if if we'ree gonna talk about crow (nothing but black feathers and brains) then anything is legal and no holds barred!
Hopefully you get to dust a couple...grins
