I loaded a bunch of 300 Savage Cartridges and took my 1952 99 to the range. I put a Marble tang sight on it and wanted to see if I could hit anything with my vintage 1952 eyes.
It took too many rounds to get on paper because I couldn't bore sight. But I did get some groups with Lee 173 grain flat points and Lee 155 AK pointies sized to .311 and pushed by Tite Wad. But the best group was with SR4759. Now, I've got to develop some loads and shoot some meaningful groups. The bummer is I'm down to my last pound of 4759 and I haven't seen any in a year.
any recommended substitute? 3031?
