03A3 range report!

[Freightman]

Got to the range to try the 03 out, the wind was 25+ but from the rear so it wasn't bad. Because of the wind decided to set up at 50yds instead of 100 as between the 50 and 100 there is a creek bed that the wind really comes down from the side and is hard to read. Here are the results after a lot of sight adjustment. This was shot with a 185gr LEE with GC and 10gr Unique, kinda like shooting a 22. This was 15 shots so it is a true representation of what the rifle is capable of. I was going to go back today but the wind is up to 40mph and it isn't even noon yet.

I believe that you are talking about the Lee 312 185 for the 303. I also shoot that bullet and love it in my 03A3. What are you sizing yours at. I'm sizing .311.

.3105 is what it sizes to and I used LLA for lube.

It would be interesting to see what that would do a 200 yards. Might run out of sight adjustment first though.
