I'm trying to get 2 cards for my .30-30. One with cast , and the other Jacketed stuff. so far the best I've done with cast at 100 yards is about 1", and under an inch with jacketed.
 The .357 max will also participate with cast and jacketed.
no x now!

I think I am going to give it a shot once I get my handi modified. Right now my best grouping is a little under an inch. Anybody know what usually wins? :cb2:

I gotta get to the range soon. The Max is shooting very well but I'm not. Gotta spend some time on the basics and get those groups tightened up.
I have'nt done any real load work on the .30-30 but it shows promise, I've so much to do here lately that getting to the range is kinda hard. 8)

Those are some very impressive groupings Jeff. I wasn't aware that Handi's were that accurate. I figured a ultra varmint would win that builds confidence :grin: .

Don't care if I win, just having fun.  Sure wish I could have made it to the Prairie Dog shoot.
