Pics from my first range day...
I warmed up the barrel with some new 150 grain FMJ warm-up ammo that I'd never tried before. It was very slow, in the 2500FPS range. It shot very well, considering it was made with little care and it was crimped. The 9 shots that landed on paper grouped 1.239".
I followed up with groups of different loads, chronographing the data. I shot two different 168gr loads that measured 1.623" for 10 shots, 1.159" for five shots (finished off a box) and another group for 1.811".
I also ran some 175 grain loads which measured at 1.655" for 10 shots and some 125's for 1.372". I finished off with a 5-shot string of 175gr FGMM which measured 1.374"
I filmed a 15 second video for your viewing enjoyment.
I have lots of playing around to do with this chassis. They also just sent me the titanium locking inserts too. Very nice stuff!
