Finally Shot It
Got upstate for some Turk chasing last weekend and while turks didnt cooperate I got a chance to finally shoot the Elite 50 cal I bought and changed the stock and bedded the action (barrel still free float),Lehigh gen 2 installed . I decided to try some 300 gr Deep Curls with short blk sabots and the CCI 209 reg primers and 105gr BH powder,at 105 yds.I was a little disapointed with my results I thought Id do better. I was using some stacked shale to rest a sand bag on and was rather wobbly. Im sure when I get to the range with a bench my group will tighten up. I only had a limited supply of BH with me and didnt do any powder volume changes that may help also. Just before I got rained out I laid prone on the ground and shot 2 rounds one after the other no cool down at all and really concentrated on trigger pull and and got both shots 1" above bull and 1.5 apart. Rains came drenched targets so I didnt get to get a pic back at cabin,next outing I hope to get a couple of pics.Primers came out really dirty compared to my Accura maybe a different primer will help.
