    Default Chronoed the Thor & BH209 combo
    Left early today so i could get a chance to chrono the 250gr thors with 90 and 100gr BH209 loads. I did not weigh these loads.

    100gr bh209 - 1882 1901 1887 - Avg 1884

    Im going to load up 110gr and 120gr BH209 loads right now but i will weigh these out.

    Pretty cool set up to have!

    How was your accuracy holding up with each increase in powder load or was this just a test in velocity?

    Shoots great with 110gr bh209. 120 i never tried as the recoil can be pretty harsh.
