1:38" Should be a good Conical Shooting rifle !

Ron, I had a pair for several years 1- 38 twist{ back before my wife died I had almost everything in pairs} they both shot quite well with bullets in the 200 to 250 gr range with sabots and with the conicals we had then, I suspect this new FPB 350 gr would shoot well also. Lee

My nephew has one. I never could make it shoot conicals well. Deadly with a 300gr xtp.
