I went out to Pontiac Lake Shooting Range this morning (Saturday, June 12th) and found it closed for construction until near the end of June. Also was told the backstop wall collapsed several days ago due to the heavy rains.

Uh, Scott, the range was closed. Did you shoot it in your basement? Or is that just the M-77 .416 Rigby you have claimed to own in the past?

What's the matter? Ain't any of you heard of parallel universes? In Scott's universe that range was open.

fla3006,
It appears that the magazine box is stock, but I do not have a rifle to compare to. It also appears that the feed ramp was widened and perhaps deepened.

Robgunbuilder,
I will chronograph the following loads, and this will consume my stockpile of Barnes projectiles.

570 grain Barnes
Bertram brass
128.5 grains of IMR4831
132 grains of IMR4831

129 grains of H4831 (on "loan" from a friend)

128 grains of IMR7828 (got a pound from the same friend)
134 grains of IMR7828

I will report out on the velocities I achieve with these powders. Some of these loads oughta be pretty compressed to.
