BEE Report - 01/13/2009 3:23 AM

Well winter league is under way and I have a small report from week two. I'm shooting an OTT 15" Encore full bull barrel in 218 BEE. I had some miscellaneous ammo to finished off, the last of the BEE ammo that was loaded 2 years ago. The BEE really likes the 40gr Blitz King. I had some that were remenants of a load ramp. They shot OK for score and at the steel portion of the night. I was suprised to see the 45gr Hornady "BEE" bullet shoot so well on paper. I have not done much with it since a little load development and most of that was to get velocity readings. These rounds were all the same charge of powder and OAL. I had 1 for a sighter and just 10 for the last two paper targets. In the target on the left the left leg of the caliper is on a 3 shot group that measures .200" center to center. Distance is 100 yards.

I have some Bergers that I want to try next. Anyway here is the target from last night.

I'm going to try and get out with my 7GNR, 7HM2, and 375JDJ tomorrow and maybe the scoped 475 and 410GNR so I'll let you know what they are doing if I make it. I just put fresh batteries in the Chrono so we're set. Why don't you just take your 500 to those shoots, the whole middle of the target will be gone and you win, isn't that how it works?
