275BE's sabotless
 

Jsteurrys sent me a dozen 275BE's to try in my Rem 700ML .45 McGowen. All 12 weighed 276.2gr according to my digital scale. Jim wanted to see a one holer. Almost on target 2!

Stats:
Rem 700ML .45 McGowen
EGW base
Burris Six 2-12x50
Burris tactical rings
Bulls Bag front rest
Caldwell rear bag
Boyds TH ADL varmint stock w/Limbsaver recoil pad (NOT BEDDED)
100yds for all targets



Gun had been cleaned after last range trip, breechplug was decarboned with a 1/8th bit. Savage vent was under .035 so it went back in. I fired one 260gr Harvester PT to put some fouling in the bore before shooting the Parkers.

First 3 shots with ??gr IMR4198 w/ dry wool wad


Next 3 with ??gr H4198 w/ dry wool wad


Lastly a 6 shot group with ??gr H4198 w/ lubed wad. Shot 3 was after about a 10min cool down and is labeled. All others were with a 1-3min cool down between shots.


I really like this sabotless shooting. :) I give the Parkers a big thumbs up.

Nice shooting! That is pretty impressive to say the least...

I am going to tell you... Very nice shooting! Those kind of groups are rare for me at that distance. I am glad someone else can do that.

WOW! That's all I can say. Wow!

Bravo!

Very nice shooting . Take a look at the stock and then take a look at the new Mountaineer stock in gray laminate. :biggrin:
Then guess who is doing the new Knight stocks

Those bullets actually shoot better with sabots in cool temps. The Deer wont know the difference.

The 275grn BE are the second best bullet i have ever used on game. They really do a great job on Russian Boars and Whitetails.

How do you do much better than a ragged hole?? :confused:

3 shots into ONE hole ;)

Gun is a .45 not a .50. If Parker made them in .400 I would try them with sabots.
