Shooting

[JKR]

Gary,
I’m not trying to develop a long range load. I have one that I’m happy with. I looking for a nice load for mid range and gong shoots. I’m using .080” compression in Winchester cases. I use .1” in my long range PP loading with good success. Different rifle though. It’s the latest lot of Swiss. Perhaps it will tolerate more compression. I haven’t chronographed it yet, but I guessing the velocity is 1100ish. I wouldn’t mind bumping it up some if accuracy will hold up.
We shot yesterday at 600 and I found it interesting that that 63 grain load required 15 minutes more elevation than the PP load from the same rifle. I shot an 88 which was not disappointing considering it was 25 degrees and I had to shoot from sitting.
Arnie,
The RV antifreeze works great for winter shooting. My shooting buddies patches were frozen solid. My gun wiped out beautifully!
