ron williamsGot a new set of BBF97 barrels
I just got home and my new set of 20 gage/9.3X74R barrels were in. It was very windy so I set up a target at 42 yards to get it on paper. After I had it on the paper shooting some assorted odds and ends of ammo I had, I loaded up a few rounds with 232 norma Vulcans and got this.

Then I moved the target to a full 50 yards and started fiddling with the bullet seating depth and charge. This was the last result.

will try it at 100 yards over the next few days.
The Norma 232 grainers seem to be very precise bullets, at least from this rifle. The no longer available 250 grain BT shoot pretty well, too.

GoldeneyeTry the Norma Oryx I you can. Usually I get tigther groups in my BBF with them than with the Vulcans.

N E 450 No2Normally I would say GOOD SHOOTING....
And I know Ron, and know he can shoot.

But, in reality, it is typically Blaser.

IMHO Blaser Drillings, Double Rifle Drillings, and Combo Guns, shoot as good, even better, than most bolt rifles.
