Saw some Goodness,this afternoon.
Kodiakearl and his pard watched me shoot (3) 162'Max via Ti at a soft 2600fps into a ragged 100yd hole(still doing load development),then PUNISH 450yd steel with same. I only loaded 10,as a curiousity and will stop at 2700fps-ish. Lapua brass,'15,moly,200's to mag confines.
Secondhand Rose is still everyone's fucking favorite and even Kodiak could work shit at the 700yd line with it.
My fast twist 22-250AI is staying the course and still shooting stupid at the 450-ish rd mark.
My Rock barreled/A5 stocked 308 shoots amazingly at 100,but I hate the fucking thing as compared to 7-08 or 7WSM performance.
The freshly bedded and rechambered 223AI LTR in the A5,shot 3 fireform loads touching at 100 and shifted but .5MOA to the right,during/after bedding. All my barrels love 28grs of '335,moly 50'max kissing lands,400's and R/P hulls. COAL is skewed betwixt them,though I've been knowed to kiss the shortest and wage war in the others,for variety.
Coyote 7WSM is still amazing and not much will hang with the chambering.
My Montana 7WSM is here in a brown wrapper and after a Liquor Store stop,she'll suffer a trigger tweak and a bedding job,as I prep/load some 162's in anticipation.
Best part of the trip was Kodiak's EAGER run to the PACT with his 280,so he could brag up his 120TSX load and dazzle me with both precision and velocity.
Screen read a whopping 3045fps avg and I patted him on the back and said that "Not bad for a fucking 7-08!".(grin)
It looked like the barb stung,if only because the truth hurts................
