Load development question.

Load development question.
Mat replied to martin_b's topic in Target Shooting & Informal Long Range Shooting Practice
Yeah, swap plinking for load development. At 45-50p per shot for powder, a few pence saved for a 'budget' bullet isn't worth it. That said, I've had good results with the 230 grain A-tip, but I'm saving those for >1000y so I've got 220 grain Bergers as my 'budget' bullets 😁 -
Sensible... How much extra is the pro?

I've bought one (made to measure) off ebay: https://ebay.us/GUUzch I managed to launch it downrange once but that was my fault I accidentally left it sticking out the front (it survived undamaged)

Yes, Bergara Wilderness. No complaints about accuracy but the barrel rusts like no other I've ever owned, so I have to clean it religiously and store it with a swab of oil.

It's polycotton ripstop with water repellant (I think) which is a bit stiff when new but softens with use, it's not crunchy as such. There's a waterproof membrane layer underneath.

The waist is velcro'd so still fits with, ahem, a few extra pounds. The fly is a bit odd in that it zips downwards to close, it's a feature not a fault!

I have a pair: very happy with mine, also I got it with short length so they actually fit me.

When has that ever stopped anyone buying an AI or PRS rig?
