Butler High Wall back from the smith.
My old Floyd Butler High Wall suffered a worn out firing pin. My smith installed a new one and the target below shows two 3 shot groups fired at 100 yds with no fouling shots.

The first group measures about .33" and the second .43".



The barrel is a 26" Buhmiller chambered to .219 Improved Zipper shooting the 40 gr Nosler BT at 4025 fps.



Over the years this rifle has been my most reliable varminter.

Savage 99.
That is one fine rifle, with super accuracy.

The 219 Zipper Imp is a dandy cartridge, one of my friends has one on a Win high wall. Love yo have one of those.

I have not heard that Name Buhmiller for years, he made some good barrels.
