I've got 2, one in .357 mag. and one in 6PPC. Haven't shot the 6PPC yet. Really like they way they handle, so far, have not found a really accurate load for the .357.
Someone posted a while back that you were going to sell yours? Apparently not.

TDLeftyI've had the BF Varminteer pistol for several years and really like it.
I have a rifle coming, paid for it, but it's not yet arrived. It is a 223. I hope it's as accurate as my pistol.

<Chainsaw>Gato, Everytime I get ready to sell the rifle, the amazing accuracy seems to suck me back in to keeping the rifle. Though I haven't been able to quite get the velocity I wanted, the groups are outstanding. I guess everything is for sale as they say for the right price.

z1rI have one in .32 H&R mag. Like GatoGordo, I haven't found a truly impressive accuracy load yet. Best groups about 1" worst about 1.5" but, it shoots three very different loads to same point of impact. I will try soon to develop loads using .308 diameter bullets to match the bore. I wouldn't trade it though. Most real rifle cartridges seem to give excellent accuracy however.

Well, next time you get in the selling mood, email me, I'm interested in a bigger calibered version. How accurate is it?

<Chainsaw>Gato, My son has shot one hole 5 shot groups with this rifle. Not a hole in a hole, but a cloverlef so to speak.
I have loading data for two powders that worked well.
Check your mail.

). 12.5 lop, French grey, engraved with a few words to him. Shoots 120 BT's into .4's and 120gr X's into .6's. He took his first deer this year with a 100gr Partition @ 2300 fps. Recoil with this load is like a 223.
