Shooting 221 and 222 mag
Finally I got to go shooting today. Next Sat deer season starts here in Mo so the state range was crowded with all sorts. I shot my new Virgin Valley 221 fireball and it shot well. two groups (5 shots)at 75 yards is all this range has and the two groups were .361 and .466. The 222 Mag is a Bullberry that I got last week and its a keeper!!!. Two groups went .266 and .231 using on the first JLK 52 gr bullets and the second using 52 gr Berger. I don't have dies yet so I ran the necks of the new brass over a 223 collet die mandrel and seated the bullets with a 223 die. Case full of H-4895 with Fed 205 M primers. Please no one tell Mike B that tommyn has a 222 mag [Wink] [Roll Eyes] [Eek!] [Razz] I am impressed with the chamber on the bullberry barrel and workman ship.
