I was feeling pretty sheepish. Especially since my 22 red wolf that I specifically bought to compete in 100 yard extreme benchrest, just is not cutting it. It shoots slugs out of this world. And I love it. But for shooting 22 caliber pellets at 100 yards in benchrest competition, it sucks. Even if I do miraculously get a good batch of pellets, it still drops a couple shots every card. I believe I am one of many who got on the 22 bandwagon this spring and summer. Thank God it shoot slugs out of this world. It would be my first go to gun for long range varminting.
Since I just bought a brand new high power red wolf six months ago. I didn’t want to buy another one. I would’ve ordered a bull pup if it wasn’t an unbelievably long wait.
then I saw an add for a high power special edition pulsar in 30 CAL. Disadvantages, small tank 380 mL. Not enough power. It’s a two year old rifle with an old board. It’s a bull pup, but the trigger is still good because it’s electronic with no linkage. It actually almost has a Woodstock. That’s what sold me.
after waiting for FedEx Ground two days in a row all day - worse than the cable guy, it finally came Friday night 5 o’clock. I figured out how to get the shroud off (I hate shrouds, waste of money accuracy killers). And put one of my old wolverine barrels that loves the 45 grain pellets. Pulled the Heli board from my 22 red Wolf, and installed it today. It is barking much louder, hopefully I will get some readings tomorrow.
It was crazy windy all day. Right at dusk I was able to shoot a couple groups in the side of a snowbank at 100 yards. They looked really good.
I think I’ve got about two more weeks to shoot my card. We will see. It is a bit of a Frankenstein right now, but I need to shoot my card and then I will clean it up.
I really like it.
