.375? Some details of the gun please.
Hunting rifle and not a bench target gun....... HMMMM must going after Chipmunks and head shots nuttin under a hundred only Nice groups that's for sure, nice work cant wait until your finished with it... looking pretty good.William
Looks good Cedric, I'm quessing .338 although bullets look a bit short for that. How about some specs, like barrel length and twist rate, velocity? No point shooting more than 3 when testing, the groups aren't getting any smaller after the 3 shots. Marko
Is that the .40 Cal Badger???
Quote from: Tofazfou on December 11, 2016, 07:33:53 PMYeah, just not sure how to feel about these groups as witnessed by probably 10 people yesterday! So I need your opinions.......lol!YEPPERS, THIS GROUP MEASURES .490" CTC and is easily covered with a quarter (.955" OD)Next up is the very horrible LEE BULLETS. These guys still managed a respectable 5/8".Last but not least, another cast bullet tested and proven to shoot under at least MOA. This group was not measured by calipers as I lost the target on the way home but, again, still covered by a quarter. And was shot twice on the same target at same fill pressure:Now, before everyone gets off on their high "HOW TO SHOOT no less than 10 shots into a group to tell consistency and accuracy" rheteric (sp?), these groups were shot back to back with 3 different bullets at the same fill pressures. Also, this gun is UNFINISHED and is still in the testing mode. When it is done, i don't expect much to change. We shall see though when that day soon comes. Oh yeah! BTW, 2 things! 1, this is a hunting gun and not a target/bench gun. These groups are 100 yards and NOT 50-60-75. More details to come as the questions roll in.Tofazfouhttps://www.youtube.com/user/tofazfou/videoshttp://tofazfou.blogspot.com/Great shooting! Eh... 10 shot groups, I only get one at an animal, after 4 I forget what I was doing anyway. How is that the guns fault?

Very nice Cedric! Are you shooting tethered or free? Funny how the long range calibers keep getting BIGGER Tom
I was out there with Cedric and a whole group of us shooting. You should have seen Cedric all excited about his gun like a kid on Christmas. It is not just the gun, Cedric is a very good shot and puts a lot of time and effort into this hobby. Doug Noble put his expertise in the build, Cedric with dedication: expect no less.

Well the only Lee Mould I can see that is 250 gr. is .375 cal.... Nice shooting, Ced, especially with 3 different bullets.... Looks like you have another winning combination....Bob
Cedric, Looks like it is working? What is it? Where are the pics of gun? Inquiring minds want to know?Carl
Lee mold?Which one and from where?
Oh, did I mention, Gun- barrel length-Cal-velocity at pressure. You know, just the little things? Knife
WOW ! you ditched the 40 cal barrel ? it looks like it shoots good .... my badger shoots great with the 40 barrel... these 196g bullets " Bobs designed accurate mold " ones are doing the trick ... right at 900 fps 3900 psi teathered this morning ... look at the the middle upper 2 holes on the target paper ... the hole to the right I put 3 bullets in a row at 50 yards ... then I had 1 bullet pull a little to the left and honestly it could of been me getting to exited about the first 3 to the right ha ! ha !
