Painful but fun
 

I ran a few loads through the NULA including a 325gr FTX and 130gr of BH209. The rest are smokeless with 275gr bullets.

CLICK THE PIC for the videos.

Can you tell which one was the 325gr FTX? :D


On the sled a few weeks ago with a near max load and a 260gr PT Gold was a cream puff.

i wish I had the land you guys have, to shoot 100 yards it would be like 3 yards here in rhody maybe four lol. first pic looks like a good kick lol

Very nice looking pictures. Looks like a nice place you have.

The third shot.

DING DING DING....BINGO and good eye.

I used one of the dirtier SML powders (5744) on the second shot and it actually made more smoke than BH209. The NULA was flawless with all the powders and it really liked the heavy BH209/325gr FTX load. Its still buried deep in the berm. I got tired of digging after about 16-18 inches.

I shot a bunch of the 50x475 275gr Speers. Those shot amazingly well and that was the impact video. I should have zoomed out because it was much more "dramatic". Parts of the wet media flew everywhere and all the Speer 275s held over 230grs even with a near max load of smokeless. The lightest one went through nearly 6" of wood first and still blew right through the phone books and i had to dig it out of the berm.

Dem GoldDot/DeepCurls are sum tuff little boolats.


BTW anyone that doesn't know....CLICK THE PIC for the videos. I added that to the first post too.

Not to be critical, but getting all the butt of the gun into your shoulder would help felt recoil. :confused0024:

Thank you, here is what we have been working on all summer. Most has been for the kids as you can see in these pics. I finished the wiring and a french drain Thursday also. All the plumbing is roughed in and now we just need a septic and 2 more "civilized places to sit on the "throne" and shower. :D The ladies want a nice place to poop and shower next. :p

We used this for years and now its the "guest house"


This is the view from the 2nd floor window for our new "climate controlled" range. The cam is on 24x zoom so it appears much closer. BTW...we are moving or removing the outhouse before its "officially open for use. You can barely see the upper window in the previous 2 first pics.

This is actually a bit over 100 yards and simulates the angle of the tree "house" stand we built.


300 yards past that target is the tree "house" we used last year. We have just over 1000 acres we either lease or own along the Meremac river. We built a pond about a mile away but hunting is off limits there except for Seniors or handicapped. We also don't allow ANY deer hunting within 300 yards of the food plots.

There are two shooters and... if im not mistakin the one you are commenting on was my buddy that learned that very quickly. He is a big guy (over 6'3" and 230lbs) though and the NULA does not fit him well. I think you can tell he made adjustments in his other shots.

Steve is a excellent marksman and the only one who has beat me when we are competing. I could post a vid right after his first shot but its no G rated. LOL

It looks to me like only that one wasn't well planted on the shoulder. I intentionally let the 325gr push me. It didn't hurt but it did have a nice push instead of a sharp rap to the shoulder. We worked for a hour or two and this was more about having fun and testing a few loads for sabot failure and bullet performance when pushed hard.

lol I never seen the video.....nice

Ok, I should know you know better. It just jumped out at me when I saw it.

My shoulder has gotten so bad i've gone to the Plains Pistol, and gave up big game hunting. Kind of a bummer, but I knew it was coming. Now I have something new to learn.:D
