@grandpamac, the load was 44grns of Varget pushing 150grn Winchester powerpoints,Used those because i have heaps of them, Dont get me wrong i was happy with the grouping (2inches @50yrds) 50 yrds will be a long shot for the bush i hunt.
My whole point for the thread was online calculators and real world results sometimes can be complete opposites, and yes the rifle is new to me but was in a sad state when i came across it,it had had a hard life,Made circa 1960, the throat is more than likely worn as i had to cut 2 inches of the barrel (muzzle end) before i found any decernable rifling,
