But not with my gun.
I visited my friend Mike N for a day at his place.
Part of that was hanging out and talking about fun gun stuff. We always enjoy each others company and we both needed a break from our hectic routine's.
Another part was upping the velocity on my Thomas HPX named SLUGSURELY for the 42gr slugs I swage, as well as to check for precision at higher speeds.
Then he asked me if I wanted to try a N50 card with his newest iteration of the HPX slugger. Man what a BR rifle, such a laser beam!
It was fairly tricky with the wind that day being 3 or so in the afternoon and 7-11 mph so I thought I would be embarrassed by the end of the card because I'm far from a good BR shooter.
I started shooting sighters and Wow those slugs were going into the 10 once I dialed a few clicks and got a feel on where to hold as I watched the flags. It took me longer than the normal 20 minutes but I pulled off my best score yet! I thought for sure I had a 249 when looking through the scope, which would have still been my highest score shooting slugs to date, but Mike plugged the #11 bull and it barely touched the black line. 250 12x it is!
Thanks Mike, I appreciate your time, willingness to help in the many ways you do, and your ever evolving rifles are some of the most awesome creations in the world of guns I've had the privelidge to experience!
