I have had a few people ask me questions about my 22's after my mold questions so I thought I would post the results of my day at the range last Saturday. 5 Hours of shooting with quite a few good results!
Yes, there are bullet holes all over the place. I had 30 targets set up at one time. I used the 6-24 scope on my 270 rifle to confirm shots. I still had to go down range every couple of volleys to mark the holes with a pen to keep them all straight.
I don’t have a picture for this one, I forgot to take it down, but my 300 Whisper did fairly well with a 148gr (312-440) and 18gr of H110. 1925fps and it did and honest 1.5in group at 100. I can guarantee there will be a few coons and countless turtles that will be introduced to the Whisper…
Ps, when this bullet hit the cardboard, I could here the "wack" even with my ear plugs and muffs on...
22 K Hornet 7/8ths three shot group.
55gr Bator-heavy dose of Lee tumble lube, CCI small rifle, and 5gr Green Dot at 1850 fps.

22 Hornet there is four shots there…
55gr Bator-heavy dose of Lee tumble lube, Fed small rifle, and 7.5gr SR4795 at 1580 fps.

460 S&W now that the scope has stopped turning… … … LOL 3 shot group
250gr FTX over 47gr H110 and CCI Mag Rifle at 2300fps. Not maxed, but the more accurate load.

7-30 Waters (this has to be a “fast” barrel) Four shots
139SpBt over 33.3gr H335 and a CCI Large Rifle at 2400fps. I did a second test to confirm those speeds…

35-06 JDJ
358009 Win primer and 50gr of H4895 at 2200fps. That’s three shots… I had to scratch my head on that one when I shot. I looked through the back side of the card board and was in shock with the group.

The bad news was that my prized 375 JDJ’s scope blew. But I was very happy with the way the guns were shooting. Still making progress with the casts projectiles. My 338-06 still throws shot gun style patters, but the 375 JDJ has come a looong way. They will get there... ...
