Fury 265g Bullet

[ronlaughlin]

Reginald Crumpeppr provided this bullet; hoped to see it captured. This is a 45 caliber bullet. Powder charge is 80 grain Blackhorn.

Distance between rifle, and bottles is 25 yard.

The bullet destroyed the front two bottles, went through the third bottle splitting it, and bounced 15 to 20 feet off the fourth bottle. The bullet bounced forward, and left of the horse. Because it bounced so far it was very very difficult to find.

The bullet weighs 236.8 grain.

Was able to set up at 204 yard this morning, and shoot this 265 grain 45 caliber STB. Started out shooting with a cold fouled barrel at the bottom bull. Three shots, then lowered the aim, but unintentionally too much. Then five shots at the upper bull.

Rifle is the 45 calliber Knight Ultra-Lite with a 3.5 - 10 scope mounted. Load is 95g Blackhorn, poly wad, 209A primer.

One of those rare morning. No breeze. Zero breeze; about 33°. Fresh skiff of snow. Set up at 203 yard. Rifle is the 45 caliber Knight Ultra-Lite with a 3.5 - 10 scope. Load is 95g Blackhorn, vegetable fibre wad, this 265g Fury STB, 209A primer. First shot from cold fouled barrel; many many shots fouled.

First shot in the red; shooter happy. Second shot, the shooter throws the bullet a way right. Shooter called shot; was quite disgusted. DISGUSTED! That is an awful feeling when the trigger breaks as the cross hair is moving right. Dam.

Third shot low in red. Fourth shot high in red




Then quit shooting at target, and set up the clock about ten feet out. Three shots averaged 1917 fps. Calculated ballistics agree with real life so far. Plan for this to be hunting load. Ordered more bullets.

 

[WV Hunter]

Good shooting regardless. I always manage to blow it when I have a good group going... its inevitable for me LOL. At least when you know it was you it helps a little.

 

[ronlaughlin]

.............when you know it was you it helps............

Wonder why we would rather be at fault, than to have the gun, or bullet, or powder, or something be at fault? Why Mike? Sure is true for me anyway...........

My thought on this is because it is something that we feel we can correct more easily and more quickly than if the gun is the issue. Its easier to explain.

 

[brad502a]

question is that 95 grains by weight or volume. a buddy just bought one of these rifle and was asking about loads.
thanks

 

[ronlaughlin]

It has to be 95g volume; 84g weight is the maximum load for Blackhorn powder.
