Default Optima - Blackhorn209 - Thors

My order of Thors came in today and perfect timing! I first shot 3 shots @ 100 yards with the 245gr powerbelt with 90gr BH209. Same group as yesterday, only i think i tightened it up a bit since then. Talk about consistent!
#2 shot is the lowest,


Now with the 250gr ballistic tip Thors, i also used 90gr BH209. The second shot is the highest/Left shot. For some reason this rifle always has the #2 open up, I am thinking it is due to Barrel Heat up. The next 2 are in that big hole that opened up.


Went back to the house to reload my powder tubes and brought it back out. Again! #2 is the highest to the left. Shots 1 & 3 again are touching like the last time.


Later this evening i am going back out again when it is cooler. I'll up my charge to 100gr BH209 and see how it does.
