Title: Bushmaster 60g SierraHP
Post by: Hank on March 10, 2013, 09:10:19 PM

My Brother-In-Law left his rifle with me for a short time. A Bushmaster he purchased used. I cleaned it up, mounted a $50.00 BuckSilver Scope and went to work. This is a three round group because I had allready done a handfull at different charge weights and this was a additional 3 to verify.
BTW- all groups I shoot are at 100 yards (+ a few usually) from my pic-a-nic table with shooters ridge rifle rest, rifle just sits in it, no weight or tie down.
This rifle has a chrome lined barrel..oh and I put new gas rings in for him.

Fix the time on your camera.

Otherwise, nicely done and love the 'reloader was here' load data writeins hehehe

Yea, that time definately can`t be correct..I was probably doing good to get the date set.
About `reloader was here` data, all fps are merely WAG, as i have no chrony yet.
Got a pile of targets like that (save the better ones to go back to), and thrown away many more.
Thanks.
FWIW- reloading has become a huge part of what I enjoy about firearms, how accurate of a load can I come up with; amazing what a half a grain of powder or .010" seating depth can make.
