Spent a couple of hours yesterday working with the Encore SSK 50 B&M Alaskan 14? BBl. Seated the Barnes 325x at .050? off the lands Vs at the upper bullet grove from my original development. Accuracy was impressive to say the lease. I kept shots to only two like kind rounds as the Barnes are not cheap. Distance was 100 yards off the bench.

Here?s one of the targets with near bug hole ? comes out to .205 inch ? Looks like this setup has promise!
This picture is the impact hole in my dirt backstop from a single 350gr XTP @ 1807fs muzzle velocity - 100 yards. Nearly 6 inches across .. This is after going through 3/4 inch OSB.
