Indeed! But I'm unsure if it wouldn't be better to sell them if they wont show them? I'd rather see them anywhere, than know they're locked away and wont ever be seen! They might as well be non existent!

I like the rifle. Have fun shooting it now that you have the firewood for next winter laid in. Roll Eyes

What is your groove size, Joe. I have a excellent NEI, tapered spitzer mold that casts .378 and weighs 290 gr.

Gee, I'd give you some advice to improve, but all I'll do instead is congratulate you. On using a Winchester barrel. Roll Eyes

String measure target from Mystery Ballard.  I'm convinced the old girl could score a 250 in calm conditions. Never do it in Montana or Idaho.

Only if the planets and shooting dates line up.

Add the correct phase of the moon and a 250 might be possible on a lucky day, but buying a Lotto ticket might be a better idea on a day like that  Grin
