Anybody out there shooting one of these? I've been having decent luck with Berger 64gr and N133. I finally got around to making a modified case out of a fired piece of brass and I'm surprised that I can push the bullet right out of the case before it jams into the lands.
So, I'm assuming this thing was designed this way to accommodate heavy bullets. ThisS491 has a 1:12 twist, not the 1:14 the repeaters had.
Anyone try anything in the 85-95 ish range? Are you using flat base or boat tail?
Just curious what others have experienced with this rifle.
