Looking good there Mark, I'm glad your chuffed.

She looks like she's going to be a shooter.

Looking forward to the first reports of the "Spud gun" in action.

Cheers

Dave

 

Hopefully tonight dave, hopefully tonight.!!!!

Really Really nice? well worth the wait? That 75 action has come out looking great, I think my next project may well go down the same route.

 

What is the recoil like compared to your 243AI?

 

Cheers

to be truth full, from what little ive shot it so far , i would say the same or very close although the gun does have a bit of weight to it

Spuddy,

 

May of only been a rabbit, but I bet it was a looooooong ways out there ??????

 

From what I just read in the "Wanted" section is SpudGun II on the horizon ???

 

Which powder/bullet/primer combination are you currently pursuing ?????

 

Cheers Steve

taken the wee beasty out to 1200 yards a few time s now and i am loving it, i had to create a shim on the rear turret to get the extra needed elevation but now i am there and it consistantly is in the 5 ring at a 1000 and some times at 1200

 

in retrospect i would have gome straight .284 but thats anopther planned calibre

Update to this: approx 760 rounds through it still using same bullet and powder weight and seating depth as from the get go.

 

Any way i had a play to day with 2 - 3 shot groups at 100 yards and 200 yards.

 

This is the result, just to add i didnt al;low and windage at all i just wanted groups ....
