My Black Hole Weaponry 1-8 barreled AR hated 55 grain bullets of any kind, but would shoot 69-77 grain bullets extremely well.
I was recently gifted a Bear Creek 18” 1-8 barrel that the previous owner said had bad accuracy. He’d been shooting Winchester white box ammo. It’s been moa for me...
I used a 20” Ballistic Advantage 1-10 barrel, and have gotten to 900 yards(longest distance available)with 168 and 175 grain SMK. This particular barrel didn’t like 150 grain bullets at all.
I lucked up a few months ago, and found an original Savage made Enfield at a good price. Also have an unfired no4 mk2 that’s as new. Prices on original military surplus rifles have gone out of sight, and are getting out of my price range, but I’m lucky to have found these two.
You did a great job on that wood! I’ve got a “T” marked no4 mk1 sniper that someone sporterized many years ago. They did a great job, and it’s very accurate. I’d LOVE to have it in its original condition, but appreciate it as is.
Doesn’t bother me to carry it with the right holster. I’ve carried it all day on a hunt with no discomfort. Murph’s Custom Leather in Mooresville, NC made this holster, and I’ve worn this rig to church several times, and no one was the wiser. Also have a holster from him for my 5” Kimber 1911...
My Chinese SKS is actually pretty accurate, and has a decent 4 pound 2-stage trigger. Don’t know if it’s been modified, because I bought it used. Here’s a 100 yard group shot off the seat of my atv.
I have an AR and a Mossberg bolt action in 450, and like them both. They’re both overkill for deer sized game, but do the job nicely. 450 Bushmaster is easy to hand load for accuracy.
My 4” Redhawk 45 convertible would be my choice. 45 auto for two legged problems, and 45 Colt from the Ruger only section of the reloading manual for four legged ones. 45 Colt is a very versatile cartridge. 700 FPS cowboy loads for fun, and 250 grain bruisers at 1450 FPS for serious stuff.
