Show your magnum 10-shot groups and win a free limbsaver pad!

Hahaha I’ve positively compensated a lot. Enough to know that if you shoot a .223 because recoil and quick drop, you have to just cull whitetail does for affirmation about how utterly destructive they are…. 🤣🤣

All jokes aside, I love both at this point lol

I feel attacked I cull red deer. Plus now I have a magnum. 243 is a magnum right... right? 😅

Hahaha in this day and age, yes we’re considering .243 a magnum. Anything over 45gr. of powder and 9ft lbs of recoil is ultra magnum and you need to proceed with caution for any shooting positions other than prone….
 
I’m a little disappointed, but considering I just through a cheap scope on it and lined it in. Also It’s a little hot out “90” for this load and the 2nd shot the rear bag slipped bullet went left not the guns fault. Christensen Arms receiver PVA 1-7 twist 24” barrel 195 Berger Elite Hunter, Retumbo, WLRM and coal 3.675.
Weight 8.13lb. I started out at 2864 the hotter it got the higher the velocity, 2959 was sticky had to let it cool back down to 2902 last shot. Lot of powder going down the tube for sure.

This was my final send off group from my last real magnum. It was a 10lb 7-300 NMI. 180 hybrids and N565. I just sold it to a good buddy last week, he should kill a pile of stuff with it. The gun/barrel is a straight hammer. Would also smoke every RSS .223…. 🤣🤣🤣

Thank you Sir, but I’m really not a great paper shooter.
I still have my first gun when I started hunting at 11 years old 8 mm Mauser.
My grandfather brought it back from WWII gave to my father and he gave it to me.
I hunted with this gun until I was 17 we were poor as dirt lol. I killed several deer and bear with it, until I purchased a Win model 70 30-06 at 18 and I still have that gun also.
It is now as it was 50 years ago, I might just shoot a 10 shot group with it in the next couple weeks.

What a cool family heirloom. Sporterized Kar98k?
