Batch Testing Lapua at Bisley

#1 Post by TattooedGun »

Finally got round to finishing my blog post on Sundays batch testing at the Lord Roberts Centre in Bisley:

To see how it's done and the results of my Anschutz 2213 go to http://blog.stegough.com/batch-testing- ... re-bisley/

Thanks :)

I wasn't really shooting consistently enough to make an informed decision, however I did shoot 3 shots into the same hole with one load, then pulled 2 other shots opening the group up to 0.855" - not quite as good as I'd like, but the 3 together were most impressive and It'll be the load I go with, at least for a short while. - Most if not all groups were under an inch spread so I don't think N140 is too picky but it's nice to know for myself./ Next time I need to take the mod off to shoot as the mirage was playing havoc. My first time shooting a full bore rifle with a mod though, so nice to experience mirage for myself from it so I know what to expect.

It was good to meet you too, many thanks for letting me rip a couple of rounds through your Drag... Definitely gone from, meh.... to "on the fence"! :)

Might see you there again sometime soon :)
