CSMC RBL Professional 20 GA. Sabot Double

Merkel 141, 30-06 Springfield


















Merkel 141, 30-06 Springfield







Right Barrel, 180 Gr. Remington green box, 50 yds.




Left Barrel, 3 different loads, 50 yds. Will use the lighter 165 Gr. Nosler Ballistic Tip hand load in the left barrel.

This iteration, the left barrel can be adjusted. I'll do that another time. This should suffice for now.



ya!

Nice guns,wish I was doing this

Go git 'em GW. Ya!

Wow! Thanks for the pictures of the guns and of the targets!

Are those swing mounts? Did you have any trouble getting the scope back far enough?

No trouble, as I purchased the M141 pre-enjoyed and it came with the scope and ringmounts.

and...

Yes they are the Recknagel Twist Mount.

The newer K3's have a mount similar to Blaser, but the older K1's and the 141 employ the two piece Recknagel twist mount. I cannot comment on the other Merkel's other than some have the claw style mounts.

I have K3's with the Saddle Mounts, but I prefer the Recknagel to the Saddle Mount, but that's just me.

Both scopes have about a 12.5" measurement from the back of the Ocular bell to the base of the buttpad.




If you notice the front mount on the M141 is an extended mount.

BTW, I've had an order at NECG for a Picitinny rail mount from Recknagel for about 6 months. I hope should it ever come in to mount a red dot/RMR on the M141.

ya!

GW,

Thanks! Very nice. Looking at putting one of those swing mounts on a Chapuis O/U I have, but was concerned about whether I could get the scope back far enough. The measurement from back of ocular bell to back of butt pad is perfect.
