GHD, it didn't do too bad

Big Sky Redneck

Here you go, the first pic is a group of your reloads at 100 yards. With the flyer(flinched) it measured at .845, without the flyer(flinch) the four shot group is .460. This was done in the cold with lots of wind, I was shivering trying to shoot these! The bottom pic is 50, yes 50 shots of factory ammo being fireformed! As you can see toward the end the barrel was getting warm and the shots starting to fly. Out of 50 only 6 shots made it out of the triangle. These were shot in rapid succession in 10 shot strings with about 15 minutes inbetween strings. The last pic is a 5 shot group with the factory ammo at 100 yards, three shots measured .650, the other two prove why I hate factory ammo, factory ammo won't group and is not worthy of anything but brass!!!

Lonnie: I can't think of one animal that you wouldn't have killed with those shots from the factory ammo!!![:D] That old groundhog ain't gonna no the difference he is still gonna be dead!!![^]

But Tim, think of what that group woulda looked like at 500 yards, most likely woulda never even hit a groundhog! That is why I want the tiniest groups possible, bad groups at 100 are multiplied at longer distances make for bad shots and misses! A gun that will group badly at 100 can would a deer at 300! I like em small, the smaller the better[:D][:D][:D]

If you want better groups you'll need a 6mm Remington reamer[}:)]

Lonnie, I figured it would please! Or else I wouldn't have sold it to you!!! Let me know when you get to doing the fireformed brass. READ THE INSTRUCTION SHEET!! The 58's will kill and maim!!! The 80's will kill! And that old sorry * "I don't like the feel of H-S Precision stock" feels better already don't it? GHD PS:
KJ: That 243AI is a varmint killing machine!!!!!! He don't need a Clymer reamer!!!!!!

Big Sky Redneck

KJ, the bullet is a 6mm, all that is needed!

GHD, I want to try it again on a calm warm day and see if I can do something about that flyer(flinch)! The HS stock is ok but for shooting off the bench the grip angle isnt right for me[:D] got my elbow hiked up too far. Ohh, and that thing needs a muffler[:D][:D] Just forget to put the ear muffs on once............[:0]

muffler???? Somebody on here is going to think I had a rifle with a brake on it!!! BLASPHEMY!!! My first experience with brakes was on (and this is for KJ) a d... 6mmAI with a brake! Henceforth and from that day forward all brakes were banished from the GHD shooting bench!!! If you can't take the wallop, you ought not own it!!!!! DAMN A BRAKE!!! GHD

Big Sky Redneck

No there isnt a brake on this, no kick at all so one is not needed but that thing is LOUD!!!

Big Sky Redneck

Ohh, I could let you pop off about 20 rounds from the .338RUM and see if you want a brake[:D][:D][:D]

groundhog devastation

Anything over .308 diameter is not needed down here!! Actually anything over .257(25-06 comes to mind) is over kill!!!! I do not have to add to my degenerating bones the stress of ULTRA MAGS!! If I get to go to Allen's (aglore's) I'll take the little 300SAUM and if I don't kill it with the first shot, I'll take a second! And if is intent on eating me, I'll shoot again and run like h...!!!!!!!! GHD
