Well ,first off i want to say thanks to sabotloader back a couple weeks ago for some surjestion's.First off i went to the range today loaded up with all kinds of stuff to try out [ sabots & Bullets]
First up was some old TC Shockwaves 50 cal 250 Gr. and shot 2 of last years 777 Pellets at 50 yards.Well After 8 shots like this, i had a 1" 3 Shot Group 1 1/2" High.While smileing all over my face
.I then move the Target out to the 100 yard marker and loaded her up again the same way and fire 2 times and both shots were almost 4" LOW.Not feeling good about that because i was thinking i should have been up higher nearer the BULLS EYE.So i scratch my old acking head some and desided to try 100 Grains of BM3 and use some of the Barnes 250 Gr T-EZ and switch out the supply sabots with some of the MMP HPH/24 sabots and not change a thing with moveing the Scope Dial Settings, just leave them as they were.I fire 2 more Shots.Both shots hit nearly 1" high but dead center,then i shot 4 more time useing the supply Sabots that came with these Barnes 250 Gr.T-EZs and they felt just like the MMP HPH/24 did when loading them when i had switch these same Bullets over to them.
So i think the MMP HPH/24 Sabots are the very same sabots that Barnes use's on there new FLAT BASE 250 Gr.T-EZ,just a diffrent color is all.
In any case I am one MO HAPPY CAMPER now with my REM 700ML
PS; It was 75 Degrees no wind to speak of.I was use a Bushnell 4x12x40AO.
Can't wait to try some BH209,But hey BM3 is working Great,So you know what they say.
If it not Broke.Don't FIX it
:lol:
OOOOOOOOO ya the whole group at 100 yards was under 2" and i did swab after ever shot 2 Damp and 2 DRY patches after ever shot
