Harter66,
That one would be perfect for those pesky wabbits that hide in their burrows out there about 1000+ yards away. Just have to do your part and use cratering rounds. Does it come with it's own bipod or do you have to heft it yourself. [:@]

I couldn't help myself actually that 8" naval howi is good for Kodiac griz from the main land with a Rocket asisted Projectal .You could mount it on your Duece an a half .
If you leave out the nose plugs the projoectals might as well be X bullets . Lead free too .

I still doubt the BC claim of .300 for a 275gr Fury and the claim of completely burning pellets. Actual tested BC varies from about .241-.260 unless you are shooting at 9500ft+ above sea level. Then its pretty close to the advertised BC. The simple fact pellets smoke and leave fouling is hard to dispute. A complete burn would produce neither.

BH209 does the same thing, smokes and leaves fouling, so it can't burn entirely either. Darn stuff

Ever shot one? A single, ever so slightly damp patch between loadings. All the propellant is burned in the first 9" after ignition. Well short of the smoke and fouling like BH209, Pyro, JS BP and all the others. Parker put the BC out at .296, rounded off .300. Heck even a CF can't completely burn its propellant.

I'd bet so. He has three of them.

Nope don't need to shoot one. A quick look at the MSDS for any sub tells me its impossible to completely burn them. I don't see anyone else making the claim of a "complete burn" other than Ultimate.

You want to see clean and a near complete burn. Swab my NULA or Savage after shooting N110. Its like night and day vs any powder ive shot.

The gun sort of impresses me, but I would say the percentage of people that wanna shoot 4 pellets is very slim.

The down side is the quality on this gun. To have ruined the breech plug and some other things like Barnes mentioned on this gun shooting BH209 isn't to exciting to me. I want a quality gun when I buy a ML. That's why I wanted Knight to use the 17/4 plugs but they said they were to expensive. I hope Cooper is making a good quality plug in there ML.
