6.5 PRC 142 ABLR Trial

[FLHunter87]

I first loaded my new Xbolt Pro 6.5 PRC with Retumbo, due to time of getting rifle and trip coming up, I opted for Retumbo. Best I got was .8" groups at 100 yards. I did get a nice buck at 212 yards and performance was great. Dropped in tracks and pass through. Now I have time to find better accuracy. Went to H1000 and got better accuracy and velocity. Most groups are around .5" and all are 3 shot groups at 100. Looks like H1000 is the winner. .050" off the lands. Now I can pick one and experience more, but can't complain with .5" groups by any means. Number 5 I definitely pulled and I know due to most of the groups being about the same. Only a couple loads were an inch. I'm pretty happy and glad this was way easier than my 257 weatherby to figure out. Can't wait to try it out on some animals sooner than later.

Nice groups. Where can I find those targets?

Hope you can see that attachment. I searched sight in target or shooting target and eventually ran into this one. Squares are roughly .5" or a little less. Just depends how you print it I guess.

Thanks. Will be printing some!
