Using Norma brass and 2209, RWS primers. Mild load at 2430 fps.

Out yesterday using diopter sights(my eyes are ancient) and shot a 6 shot group at 1.5 MOA at 100 yds.
Also have a side mounted 4x scope and most of my groups nudge <1MOA with that.
Tried some 155gr Dyer yesterday and they performed very well so will stock up a few.
Also tried 2213sc yesterday and that was hopeless.

The K31 accuracy continues to amaze me. No wonder the Yanks love them.

I have a second K31 that I shoot H&N lead projectiles with my 22 Hornet powder. It also shoots OK.

Have a reasonable quantity of GP11 but have never got around to firing it.
There is also a guy in Wanganui bringing in ammo (Prvi?). I enquired but his FMJ had sold out real qiuck.

If you ever decide to part with your GP11 ammo please give me a shout
