Montana MaddnessCalhoon shooters here?
Anybody try these .19 & .20cal convertions that James Calhoon sells. He is a bullet maker from near here (Havre MT.) I'm kinda thinking the .19/223 is a hell of a Pdog rifle, but have not shot one yet.
I know some of my custimers from the Big Sandy area are big fans so mabe I can use one for a weekend.

crashcarruthers33 grain Calhoun .204 bullets shoot great, but Berger 35 grain bullets shoot as good, are cheaper and tougher. I am sure his conversion are of very high quality, I have never heard anybody compailn about them. I think he uses CZ actions.

berylhNo big deal but according to Calhoon's price list his 20 Cal bullets sell for $42.00 per 250 pieces - about $17 per hundred.
Bergers sell for about $22 per hundred at Midway. I have not seen them much less other places(in stock).
I'm having my Cooper barreled by PAC-NOR to 19-223.Looking forward to shooting it in about 4 weeks.
Received my 19-223.Breaking-in the Bbl but it already is shooting some good groups.PAC-NOR did a very nice re-Bbl job.(8/21/08)
