I should start this report with an apology to Batchief for the lateness of this report as I told him I would do a range report months ago.
Well, Bat...I am very impressed with the quality of your 500 grain TrashCan to say the least.
I have shot very few full bore lead conicals, so I don't have a lot of experience to draw from.
I used my 50 cal. Disc Elite
Bushnell 3200 3-9x40
65 grains of BH 209
Fed. 209 primers
50 cal wool pads
I also swabbed between shots, allowing the barrel to cool.
No shots were chronographed.
Two shots to get on paper. Wow!! I forgot what recoil is all about! Even at 65 grains it rocks your world!!!
One scope adjustment shot, then four more for measurement.
That was enough for me to say these suckas shoot!! .900" ctc at 100 yards. Very impressive considering it was done with a 1:28 Elite.
Now I have a few left.... and I want to use them on deer this year.
It should be quite an education.
If the recoil doesn't blow me out of the tree..... 8)
Nice bullets, Bat 8)
