Thread: Help with single shot Rossi

[QUOTE=veitnamcam;44103]Update, fired 50 rounds threw it this evening with zero dead mans click and zero opening on fireing YAY!

I had gone down the bearing blue and stone route on the locking piece intill the locking piece fully engaged leaving the triger group out each time I trial fitted so I could see whats going on. sorry no pics bloody phone I know I took them but they arnt there.

Not having access to a range this evening I went bush to test.

Lying in the dirt with a bipod and my hand as a rear bag,Rapid fire in rapidly failing light with a shit fixed 3x scope I resighted after remounting the rail that had come loose fitted by NOT ME

Factory fed 150 went 1.5-2" at a hundy yards........good enough for its intended use

90gr xtp subsonic went around a inch @ 50y

130 barnesTTSX with no load development whatsoever (just dropped a grain from my Sakos load) and a plucked out of thin air seating depth produced 6x 3 shot groups all under a inch at 100y averageing around .8

The shooting crony averaged 3020fps for the barnes 2650 for the fed and 1020 for the subs out of the 18" barrel

The barnes is a bit hot really but it shoots so im loading up some more and giving it back to the old man.

This is 3 of the barnes groups(scope wasnt doing what it was told) shot in shit light with a fixed 3x off the ground with no bags rapid fire.


Hi, old thread I know, but after being away from the game for awhile, I'm looking at some new reloads for my .308win Handi rifle, specifically some subsonic (and supersonic) XTP 90g and 130g Barnes TTSX - any chance you recall what powders and weights you were loading?
