Good shooting! I thought there was only one kind of gun that could do something like that? :scratch: :lol:

 

[Omega451]

Centerfire accuracy in a muzzleloader. Who woulda thought that? :shock:
That is the best group I have shot yet with this barrel. I confirmed 3 hits by the cardboard backer.

 

[EndeavorShooter1]

gotta be a fluke, we know Bergara barrels, do not shoot that well!!!

 

[Marty1]

You've taken the clover-leaf to a new level...Great marksmanship :!:

 

[sitsintrees]

Yea that will get the job done, great shooting!

 

[Omega451]

Marty,
Here is the cardboard backer with lines for the 3 hits.

 

[norbush1]

We all want to be able to shoot like that :lol:

What rest did you use?

 

[Omega451]

Red Head Bulls bag front and a Caldwell rear rest.

That is positivly amazing right there. Those Bulls Bags are really nice. I use the X7 model and a small stuff bag filled w/kitty litter rear. I wonder if me and my 45 Extreme could do that, hmmm. I think my rifle is capeable. What kind of light did you have, sunny,cloudy?

 

[Omega451]

Sunny and 69 degrees.

Just got my Bergara .45 barrel mounted & scoped on my Pro Hunter frame. Looking forward to zeroing it. Gonna use BH209, but gonna try the Parker 200 gr. Hydra-Con's. Just got some in, Bob Parker said they should do pretty good in this set-up. The 275 gr. Parkers in .50 cal work great in my Savage MLII.

I had inquired about them bullets but they were expensive even if bought in bulk w/o sabots. Figured for a buck a bullet I can just shoot the 195gr Barnes MZ's. Definitely let us know how they fly.

Steve, you have me thinking about changing my tc barrel to bergara!

 

[CoyoteChuck52]

Tony there's nothing stopping ya! This would be a good chance to try the .45 too.

You better act quick before Carlos sells out. Once the Bergara barrels are gone they will not resurface till a few months after hunting season.
