Took my model 97 Whites to the range today for back up at the hog hunt! 8) Both shot pretty good if I do say so myself! My .50 shot the best it has ever shot. I had it bedded by Mickey Coleman and he must have done a really great job! I first shot a 5-shot group with 75gr fffg Triple Se7en and a 495gr No Excuses. The group was PITIFUL! Next I grabbed up five of Bobs 496gr NEWs with the same powder charge....WOW!
And that's with a pretty stiff wind and a rinky-dink 2.5-7X32 Sightron scope! I put that rifle back in the truck! :wink:
NEXT up was my .45 model 97. Today this rifle didn't want to shoot. I tried both a 495gr No Excuses and a 461gr Bobs NEW with 75gr fffg Triple Se7en(in retrospect I probably should have used 70gr) and both were not good at ALL. Sunday I had had good luck with the Bullshop 420gr and 80gr fffg Triple Se7en. Well..today they didn't disappoint! Here is both Sundays AND todays 5-shot groups. Not too shabby!
Personally I see a LOT of promise with those bullets and they look to be some of the better made ones out there! Both 5-shot groups less than 2.0 inches isn't too bad. UC thinks they'll do better than that!
At any rate I'll have both Whites ready for the hog blast for JD and JJ! :lol: :lol: :lol:
