Default Break Action group

Upon my arrival at our VA farm on Friday I wanted to shoot the ProHunter to check it out. Reviewing my records I decided to go with 110g 777... 250gr Shockwave....W209 primer. Alot of talk on heres been bolts are just better, well this isnt the case in my book. I only took 2 shots both on clean barrel( barrel has been treated with Montana X-Treme Bore Conditioner). Both shots were fired using the old porch railing as a rest. I feel high quality products perform no matter what, bolt..break..pivoting breech whatever. And before anyone tells me I Know the rules must be 3 shot group.

We don't all agree that a bolt ML is more accurate.

Very nice shooting. To me the first shot is the one that counts, not the third.

Very nice shooting. But I do have one critique.
Targets are free!
This is one of my favorites.

Those sign holders look like they would work great. Just tape your target to the sign.
