Can’t get these to group right. Shot 15 shells to get there and did not, so far. Will give them one more try with the 5 shells left...

I've been shooting this ammo for 7 years and I love it! One MOA accuracy in my Henry and lots of meat in the freezer. It's great for the East Texas woods

Im not a hunter but have always enjoyed target shooting at long ranges. My Uncle started taking me to the out door ranges when i was a teen. Im almost 50 now and like to think im a pretty good shot. I have a Ruger mini-30 (7.62x39) a Remington 308 bolt action, and a model 96, 1960 Winchester 30:30 and its got the shortest range of the 3 rifles i mentioned..
Having said that, these rounds really changed the game on the range and flight characteristics of regular 30:30 ammo. It increases your range to about 250yds maybe a bit more if your good enough and the wind is kind to you...(this is at a range shooting from prone). I'm also one of these guys that made a special mount to hold a scope on the 30:30. Its top eject so the scope sits forward. (Ive been a machinist for 30 yrs and made my own mount...and no i didnt drill into the gun...it's a mint, pre 1964 model 96...im not crazy).
Bottom line...i love this round. I know there will be doubters on the 250yrd range i have experienced.. Non the less this has been my experience with this ammo and my 30:30. -

There is no doubt that this is the hardest recoiling round I've put through my 336. But it's also the least affected round I have in this caliber by the wind.
Shooting for groups, this stuff hits at the center line like a champ, where other brands get blown slightly left or right depending on the wind. It could make the difference... -

Best 3 shot group out of 5 was under 1.5" @ 100 yards. Not to bad with just some air soft pellets stuffed in zip lock bags. Shooting a marlin 336 xlr.
