Pulled 152 FMJ

Pulled 152 FMJ
Shooting through a bunch of bulk bullets I purchased some time ago. These were pulled & sized by Talon Industries here in WV. When you turn one loose it's anybodies guess just where it will go. They do seem to group better as the range extends.

The load for these 2 targets was 49 grains of a rather slow lot of 4895 & a CCI #34 primer.

300 yd.

Thanks Don. Had it awhile. It's an easy shooting rifle.

I don't think I've ever seen a 700 that wouldn't shoot very well. Probably one of the reasons they've been around so darn long.

I don't understand why groups would get better as the range increases.

Having lived in beautiful WV for 11 years, it's nice to see green grass again at this time of year. But I don't miss the humidity.
