I installed the new peep sight on my Ishy.I really like this thing.I used factory
150 grain Federal ammo to sight her in at 50 yards.The reason, I know how this rifle
shoots with it.

I then started shooting my paper patched ammo with 37 grains
of Varget.Did not even hit the paper.Now before I go on let me say this.

I bought a Lee case expanding die & got the necks way to big.But being
I had already primed them I shot them as is.There was just not enough
fit between the bullet & neck to really tell anything.

Also I shot up the rest of the as cast bullets I loaded last time I went out
& they were still shooting high.

I have been using needle nose pliers to bell the necks in the past & most likely go
back to that this time.I was just scared I would tear the paper jacket in pressing
them in.

Well part of the learning curve.Dam I also srewed up the shell ejector some
how.But I will worry about that after I get this rifle shooting like I know it
will.

I took my Swiss K 31 out also & I'm not casting, paper jacketing or any thing
with that tack driver.Talk about a sweet rifle.Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm:holysheep
