Happy Jack is right on the money with his load suggestions. It is a proven load that a vast majority of the top shooters in Wild Bunch use.

GS Change to Federal Gold Medal Large Rifle Primers and see the improved accuracy

Great Video..........Well Done Skinny

CND Keep in mind the higher elevation ( above sea level) velocity will change and point of impact will change also. Where Dusty and I live elevation is about 650 above sea level.

If the Cartridge Cutoff is not installed correctly if will not function properly. The receiver is slotted and recessed for the Cartridge Cutoff to cycle correctly. The forward end is inserted into the recess of the receiver. I get M12's in the shop from customers that have incorrectly installed the cutoff and their guns will not function properly.

Good information there thanks for sharing. Bullseye Powder has been an excellent pistol powder for the 45ACP. We used it in precision Bullseye matches for many years. As new Powders were developed big improvements were made. The transition from Bullseye powder started with 700X. Then 452 and 231 powders came on the seen. Each of the new powders had some improvement over the previous ones. When Winchester Super Target came on the seen it was the go too Powder for the shotguners. Then the competition pistol shooters jumped on the band wagon. Its advantages were very clean burning, light recoil and a narrow deviation for FPS. In the days pistol shooting world it is still one of the go to Powders.

Boggus Deal is correct The Swedish Mauser M96 and M38 both are legal rifles for BAMM and yes legal for Winter Range

Capt Sam Evans is shooting Wild Bunch only

CND Looks like you are headed in the right direction. The Grand Rifles are lots of fun to shoot. There are 8 of us at our club that have been shooting these rifles for a number of years and in the last few years we have included them in our Wild Bunch side Matches. The Bullets you have ordered from Norm are the bullets we all use. 170gr GC .310 Hi-Tek with 35.8grs of IMR 4895 with either Winchester Large Rifle or what I use is Federal Gold Medal Large Rifle. This is a proven load. All of us at our club are using this load data. A number of South Texas shooters are using the same load data. It will produce velocities between 1800 and 1900 FPS. My gun is running about 1850. The accuracy with this load is excellent AS you know different guns will produce different velocities. At our state match there were 2 rifles that shot about a 100 rounds each during the GAMM Matches. There was 0 leading and fowling in either Rifle. We have found lower velocities will not cycle the actions on the Grands and higher velocities are not needed for the distances and the targets we use. All these rifles are stock actions and the springs have not lightened to shoot these reduced loads. I shoot my rifle out to 450 yards with these loads and its a hammer. CND are you shooting WB at Winter Range hope to see you there.

EJ WE will have tables and rest available. The shooter has a choice on how he delivers his 10 Rounds down range. There is no restrictions on Shooter positions. If you use cross sticks you might need a mallet to secure them firm in the ground.

GS That sounds great. It will make for a good addition to the BAMM Competition. One of your Club Officers call me a while back inquiring on the GAMM Matches that we put on. I think he liked what he heard. Good Luck and Good Shooting............. Goatneck

Hey B40 We use a coated Gas Check bullet sized .310 @ 170gr. We use these in our bolt guns the 1903 & 1903A3's and our M1 Grands We push them @ 1550 FPS & 1850 FPS in the Grands. These bullets are tack drivers. His name is Norm Percel in Roswell, NM. Do not have his number in front of me....I will get Dusty to post it here. He also sells 7MM & 8MM bullets. Goatneck
