Well the mighty 32 cal Cherokee has been christened. It was tough handing the recoil of its monsterous 30 gr charge of FFFg. But it takes a lot of powder to force that huge 47 gr PRB down the bore.
Thank goodness the 90 bullets Semi sent me shot horribly. The best I could do with them was 3" at 25 yards. Now the RB with a .005" patch and 30 gr of FFFg seemed to be the ticket. At least at the 25 yds I was limited to today.
Here is the target and the rifle. The first 3 shots are the ones about 3" below the bull. After a sight adjustment, the other hole is from the next 3 shots.

that thing really groups them. That would make a fun squirrel rifle or for bunny hunting. Nice shooting.

Man that looks like a ton of bun bronko. I always wanted a small caliber rifle like that... one day maybe.

I guess I'm not surprised Bronko. It was a long shot that they would work. But heck, you've got to try. Them there balls sure stacked in nicely though. The bunnies are in trouble for sure. Rabbit Sauce Piquant over rice is hard to beat. I've got a great recipe if you want it.

You have to grin with a 30 grain load - can't get any more economical than that.

If I remember they have a PRB twist which is faster than most people would expect in that small a caliber.

that is a beautiful and good shooting rifle,hope your shoulder does'nt hurt to much.nice job..karl

Thanks KB - And the the whole package is nice and light. Recoil on this rifle is about like shooting a 22 Hornet. Sort of like when someone taps you on the shoulder to get your attention. I can't wait to get my grandson out to shoot it. He will have a ball.

Semi - you send me that recipe please. You think it would work with squirrel too?

And Lee, yeah, I did notice that when I was swabbing the bore. The rod did seem to twist pretty quick. I'm going to have to measure the rate next time.
