BigAl, tried some Rel 7

Post by Vaquero » Tue Jul 06, 2021 8:58 pm

Finally tried 26.0 grs. With some 240 and 243 gr pills. They shot higher than the 2 previous loads.
Not really much of an outing as I was just leaning over the porch rail. The 2 yellow dots and the 2 holes closet to target are the 243's, the first shot is above all a couple inches. The green dot and the two rectangles are the 240's.
The other 5 are the 240's with the Unique load.

Thanks buddy, I will.
Need to get a better rest, maybe get the sand bags out and put it on the bench.
Sure is a fun firearm, I should've bought one of these a long time ago. :lol:

To bad the caliber isnt more popular as its such an easy round to reload and its low recoil is very user friendly. Its reduced charge capabilities make it a good caliber to plink with.
