X Marking spots

Post by brettitt41 » Sat May 30, 2020 8:26 pm

Got my scope mounted up on thumper and shot about 50 rnds from 50 to 200 yards. Was just banging steel at 200 so no pics but it sure was fun. Scope is a Athlon Midas BTR 1-6 mounted in DNZ Medium Game Reaper rings. Sits perfectly on thumper. Oh I've decided to name her thumper. Once I got it sighted in I tried some different loads. The 350gn ACME bullet at 15gn of Universal shows lots of promise. All rounds were also shot suppressed but the Trailboss loads I had were definitely the ticket for subsonic loadings and ease of shooting. Didn't put any on paper as it was so much fun when the round hitting the steel was louder than thumper going off. :lol:

Nice with the Universal. I as well had great luck with it under a 350 gr Berrys plated using 16 grains
