Brand new 185grn Lehigh.

[grouse]

After a busy day in the woods, i still found time to make it to the range. For some reason i don't really know why but i brought my T/C Triumph. Bench shooting and bullet testing the Knight rifles are alot easier for me to use and hold steady versus the Triumph. But we made the best of it either way.

I shot these bullets with BH209 from 100grns to 130grns. The smallest group shot at 100yards was with 110grns and a MMP sabot. It would of measured about 3/4 of an inch and i forgot to take a picture. Actually taped over the group as well.

Here is the target at 100yds the Blue MMP sabot. The new harvesters didn't seem to work as well for me in the Triumph.



At the end of the Night i decided to shoot a group at 200yards. I was going to shoot 5 shot's. After seeing the three shot group i changed my mind real fast.



I'm going to send Dave an email tonight and tell him i have no issues with this bullet. Hopefully he will have them on the web-site very soon.

I still plan on shooting these out of my 45caliber and shooting them with some tips as well. Maybe even sunday if i get my yard work done.

Very Nice! Can you take a picture of them next to the 200 when you get a chance?

Okay, 185grn Bullet on the left. 200grn Bullet on the right.

[Busta]

Thanks!

Did he change the ogive or just shorten the straight wall/bearing surface? Hard to tell exactly from the pic, but I can see the top knurled band is lower.

Do you know if the 200's are still going to be available?

For sure, that's my favorite bullet. You just need to push them in a 1/30 and 1/28 twist.

As far as the 185grn, he just took the weight off the back of the 200grn. The nose will be the same between the two.

Thanks, I really like that 200 in my 1:20 twist.

I had a couple really nice groups with that bullet.

Two demerits Busta, for posting a target picture without a distance notation.

It has 100 yards on the the target, you just can't see it in the pics.   100 yards is my standard, and the length of my outback range, I sometimes shoot at 50 with open sights. Can't see like I once could.

BTW, those were the best groups, I had others that were in the 2-3"+ range. I think the biggest difference is the different types of sabots in that rifle. It really likes the Harvester blue CR and the tan MMP better than any others.

Would these do better in my Accura with 150gr Pyrodex RS? The 200's show a lot of good promise if i can stop screwing up shot #2.  I did it again today.. DOOOH!

Do to popular demand, i took the Knight Disc Elite 45 to the range tonight. I shot 120grns up to 150grns with BH209. I stayed with in Knights manual on these loads.

Very nice Grouse !.... thanks for posting.

I'll be calling Dave again this week.   These .45's are sweet shooting guns.

The 185grn bullet is on the web-site and on sale for those that are interested.

The price is $40.00 bucks and that includes delivery. That is a great price while it lasts.
