Right now I'm running Hornady 75 gr BTHP Match at around 2530fps
This is the best I've done with them so far, I'd like to get them a bit tighter.

Wow, it took Photobucket a long time to find our site. They have been gone for quite sometime on other site. At least they didn't replace it with an advertisement for their services.

I took a few minutes to stroll through the pictures.
Notable to me was the fact that a lot of these rifles look like they would be perfect for a weekend afternoon at the bench.
The barrels on some of these pieces were so thick that I wondered briefly if one or two were integral suppressors.
The weight! (Mama!)
Of special mention: the radioactive yellow stock. I have heard of a guy in NZ shooting a deer , laying down his rifle and gutting the beast to carry out, then being unable to find it again among the tussock.
That rifle screams I AM OVER HERE.
NO chance of it being left behind.
What I am really curious about though, is given the workmanship of these rifles, if the owner is shooting off his own bench, then the bench must be a work of art.
Picture?

I tried to load a couple more rifle pictures here today, but apparently photobucket won't download over here now.

I still use Photobucket, but I also have to pay a monthly fee for using it.

Photobucket closed down their free photo hosting some time ago and started charging for that service. I, like many others, lost a lot of pics that were on the website. I don’t think there are any other free pic hosting services around anymore. |
Vince ,,,, ran across this site awhile back haven't tried it out yet....
EDIT------ It works......
