Finnaly got the federal premium 40 grain nosler ballistic tip in and did a fun target for kicks. Ammo sure makes a big difference. Both are 5 shot.

You're not going to believe this turn of events, I still don't. I went down to the post office today to close out my PO Box and found out that there was an envelope behind the counter. It was from Canada and postdated August 31st. I opened it and just about went into cardiac arrest. So, I ran home and scanned it in and measured it with On Target. It measured .264 which lands Bluestar48 squarely in 3rd place. Everyone from hozz57 on down moved down one place in the order. Congratulations to Bluestar48. Well done. My apologies, sir.

I just had a feeling we were announcing winners too soon. :shrug: Sorry, shooters. My bad.

I'm happy with 4th place! 1st, 2nd and 3rd should be in the .2 inch range for this cartridge :-)
The more I learn, the more I see how much I have to learn!
