I took my new Long Range Hunter to the range for the 2nd time this morning. I am just not quite pleased with the accuracy yet. 100 yard groups with various bullet/sabot combimations have been in the 2 1/2" to 3" range. I've been careful to let the barrel cool between shots. I have been using BH209 in loads ranging from 80 grains to 100 grains. Scope base is tight. Scope is a brand new Elite 3200 3x9. Made sure the actions screws were tight. Shot the FPJ breech plug and the Non FPJ breech plug. The Non FPJ seemed to show more accuracy promise. This rifle should be shooting half the group size it is. I also took my new Green Mountain .54-120 Brush Gun and it shot a clover leaf at 50 yards and an inch a 100 yards with 90 gr of BH209 and a 350 Sierra HP in a purple MMP sabot. I want the LRH to shoot that good! Any thoughts?
