Took my Lyman Great Plains Hunter 1:32 Twist out for a stroll this morning, i wanted to try my ‘Scool Bus’ PP bullets in it with 80 Grains of Swiss 2F, She shot well for the conditions i was in. I decided to try and get out to the local sand pit this morning, that road is NASTY right now to say the least! Once i got out there i was more concerned about getting back than shooting my rifle :shock: There is a Mudhole you have to get through, i forgot how deep it was til i got in it, No joke it was up to the bottom of my doors and full of ice, I GAURANTEE ya i won’t be going back out there til spring time!
I was able to get 75 yards, i had to stay in the rutts from the last rig out there, the snow is a good 2ft deep, i had 1 foot down by my tire, and the other up on the snow bank behind me, definitely NOT ideal comfortable conditions!
Here’s the ‘School Bus’ Bullet i was shooting, i had this bullet made from the S&W 500 bullet, it drops from my mold at .533-.534 she’s a BIG WHOMPER at 532 Grains of Pure Lead
Outside edge to Outside edge measured exactly 1-3/4” This rifle shoots better than this from a bench, but for the conditions i was in I’m ok with this.
