with no real wind to speak of it'll near cloverleaf @ 100m. Never had to fire it in blustery conditions. The heaviest pill you can get is 40 gr. It's popped quite a few whistle pigs in it's time.....now it's on lend to a buddy & has so far taken 3 coyote's.

Maybe at your range. At mine an M1911, 1896/11, K31 and even more so the 1889 leaves a look of "Shock and awe" on the faces when they see how a ca 100 year old rifle can shoot the socks off of a modern day $1K remchester huntin' rig. Especially the 1932 K31 (scoped in picture) when I tell them I paid $ 80 for it :lol:

OK "Pops" Yer making me NOT want to move to TX :lol: If you poor sods can't appreciate a REAL quality swiss rifle, then maybe I am better off being a yankee :mrgreen:
The Yankee won the war but the Rebels are still fighting it here in TN .
This is the 1st gun I ever built . I built it to carry on my dirt bike for hunting .
Then I used it for silhouette matches and shot 50 plus 40x40 scores with it .
TOM ..... I see you have the new trigger , how is that trigger. I've seen them only in mag and Savage needed it to take from a good gun to a super gun ..
