that is great shooting... but to see what the bullet would do, you would have to shot into gelatin. That testing stuff. It might go crazy in that kind of stuff.

Looks like 120 stood it right up. There is promise yet... When you can get back out shoot 3 - 120 grain shots and lets see those holes. 120 is my normal hunting load.

2 of the 100 were also good.

Gosh! and the 100 grain loads - ACCURATE!!!!

So there still might be some sunshine in the 1-30 - everyone of your shots is a dead animal!

That is 100 yard target correct?

OK so I am thinking again - not good - I think I will break out the 1-30 again and go with T7-3f powder - starting with the same 110 grain load. That bullet is so light the 3f which creates more peak pressure faster might be just the ticket.
