    "The Flyer"

    Had the APRS in .308 Win out at the range today in Collie just getting rid of 40 rounds of non annealed cases so I can anneal them the same as the others I have loaded up.
    The splatter target has a nice 4 shot group and the 3rd shot of that 5 shot string well it decided it does not want to be with the others as I have mentioned before in my groups.
    Still the 4 shot group near the center of the target is fairly tidy was shot off a bi-pod with a rear squeeze bag (2 old socks full of garnet)

    So I moved out to 200m shot 2 x 5 shotters one off a BR Rocksteady rest the other off the bi-pod both times using the rear squeeze bag the center circle is 25mm, the secondary holes are from the projectiles breaking up on the steel belt in the conveyor rubber the targets were staple through
    I am pretty happy with it as I guess the neck tension was all over the place the rifle had already had 40 rounds prior to this session so was getting towards 80 rounds without a clean.
    Again the flyer I know exactly where the shot will be when it feels like a crap release as the groups are strikingly similar with the fliers.
    Still they are fairly tidy and good enough to put one in the boiler room of a porker the 168gn "A" Max is devastating on soft targets big exit holes. Cheers
