    Professional Hunter Gun Safety

    Woodleigh weldcore

    So the two inners running at 2,080fps The outers at 2,130fps. All 480g Woodliegh softs, just asking myself if I didnt pull that last shot giving a wider regulation:( Guess I will have to redo it! Although I wouldn't be happier with 2,150 than 2,080fps........ will the Buffalo know the difference ?

    Double round holder

    Came with my double o/u Aluminum with two clips from an MAG belt riveted on Simply drop them in and 'break them off' Fun for the range but they fell out my pocket during a buffalo stalk involving a belly crawl. Probably just need to work on a better pocket or belt holder.

    Loading for a double

    My 450 NE 31/4" shoots 450g TSX and 500g Hornady on the same regulation with the same charge. These were developed after purchase as the rifle came with no data. I have also managed to get the same out of 350g Hornady and Swift Aframe. It is all about the speed I found, or I was just...
