The storm that blew in so quickly also blew out quickly, leaving it wet and humid but sunshine. I decided to give the Super safari a go.
Same load, triple 7 powder, #11 cap,.060 veggie wad and Ed's 465 gr bullet. No swabbing between the 3 shots.
75 yard results. Not as good as the Disc but good enough to move back and see what would happen.
I decided that the maximum range if I decided to use this setup for elk, would be 200 yards..I figure I only get 1 shot so I wanted to see what would happen with that 1 shot.
here is my elk
off I go to 200
take the shot then try to see if I could see where it hit through the scope. Couldn't see a hole.
I drove up to the target and looked. here is what I saw
It might look ok but I was shooting for the heart.
the load has good ballistics though as far as retained energy. here is 200 yard info
and I doubt I could hit the side of a barn at 500 yards but if I could it would be with almost 800 fpe left
