Nononsense..........pittman bullets

I looked up the web site and saved it for future use, thanks for posting about them. If I get moved out where I can shoot on my own property those would be worth working up loads for. I knew they must sell a jag to seat those and sure enough they do. It takes a lot from my shooting time to load up everything and set up on someone else's farm to shoot long range. Much easier when I lived on a farm and had a range with bench set up.

These bullets are more than worthwhile and have a potential for accuracy not found with other bullets of similar design. They're not cheap but worth every penny. Besides, he is an extremely nice man to work with on projects like this. He also has a ton of information which he freely shares with anyone. That target was shot with one of his suggested loads for that bullet.
The rifle uses a 26" barrel + a radial muzzle brake. The twist rate is 1:20". The weight is usually right around 8 to 8-1/2 lbs. The recoil is interesting. I've shot it 45 times in a row with the full house load. It's probably the equivalent of 7 or 8, 25-shot rounds of full power trap loads.
Best.
