With work and the weather ( frequently cold, windy and rainy lately ) it's been slow but I'm making some headway. I discovered some .216 NSA 27.5's that I (apparently) didn't have any luck with from some other gun so I figured I'd give them a try. Initial impressions from a week or two ago ( I forget - again work and weather ) had me thinking that these showed promise. I just did the below out in my back yard after yet another round of degassing, pulling out the reg and adjusting it in little increments and then slapping it back together. Needless to say I can pretty much tear this thing down and put it back together rather efficiently . . .
There is an old tree stump out in the back yard that sits at 47 yards from my little shooting bench - it's sort of become my defacto "zero" when setting up a gun and is also what I shoot at when just winging ammo over a chrony when dialing in fps / see where the reg / hammer spring tops out.
It's getting there - I'm (actually) pretty happy with this. I'll need to push it out to 100 yds and hope that it still holds reasonably tight. But yeah - for "50" yds (not - 47 in actuality but close enough . . . lol ) and getting dime size and less groups - yeah. I have two boxes of the same ammo coming in from NSA in .2165 and .217 - I'm just curious to see if they get better or worse with the slightly larger diameter.
