10" .44MAG @ 100YDS
« on: November 15, 2004, 10:25:34 AM »
After I got my archery buck Saturday morning I refocused on getting a hunting load working for my G2 to fill the doe tags....

Loaded up 100 rounds of 23.0g W296 behind a Hornady 240g XTP and CCI 350 primers Saturday night on the reccomendation of a friend.  Took the G2 w/ 10" .44MAG topped with Leupold 4x to the range at lunch today....

I AM STUNNED AT HOW WELL THIS THING SHOOTs @ 100 YDS.  It will definitely shoot way better than I can!  After I got her on the paper I cut several 6 shot sub 2.5inch groups off the bag at 100yds.  

These groups may not be impressive to most of those on here, but considering I am a neophyte in the handgunning realm at that distance, I was amazed.  I was having trouble in that I kept forgetting to get my idle hand out of the way from the trigger guard and got bit a few times.

This load proved to be substantially tamer in the recoil department than the previous loads I have been working with.
