Got to shoot it for the first time at 100 yards today. The shot on the right was a called pull. The rest was acting up. This still measures 1.25". New rest being assembled this week. Hopefully have it ready for next Saturday. I am expecting groups around. .25". Should be a really fun gun to hunt with. This load was a 140gr partition over a near max charge of H4831SC lit by a GM210M primer in Starlne brass.

Cleaned up nicely and shoots pretty good. What more could you ask for?

Very tickled with it.I know it has .25" to .50" groups in it. I was trying to use a rest I use with revolvers. I had an old towel at the bottom of the grip trying to get it rock steady. It actually forced my grip into a slight bind. I will have my new rest down this week. I now that is good enough but y'all don't know how picky I get when I know there is more in a gun than I am getting. I think the load is perfect.

Haven't shot it over the chrony yet. Looking for 2550fps. Hope to do that Saturday.
Yep I would shoot an elk with it!
What more could I ask for? Pictures of it with dead critters!!

I have not played with my 260 Barrel much so far. I am sure yours with enough glass will really reach out. I had a free 20X Super Sniper Rifle Scope laying around a couple years ago. I installed it just to see what the Bullberry 260 barrel would do. I was using computer generated drop chart data. I was shooting at 100 and 200 yards to get a Zero on the scope. I do not remember if I went out any further before I dialed it on up. I put Four of Five shots on a 10 Inch Steel Plate at 600 yards the first time I fired at that distance. I put all Four hits on the top edge of the target, so it was shooting a hair flatter than my drop chart data suggested. I have it set up for hunting now with a 2.5 - 10 Weaver Classic Extreme 30mm Rifle Scope. This was my first muzzle braked handgun barrel that I was impressed with. It has Bullberrys radial muzzle brake. Have you worked with your 260 any more the last week or so?

I haven't had time yet. I was going to shoot it this past weekend and didn't get done working on my hunting vehicle in time. If all goes well I will hit the range Saturday.
