    MY RANGE I USED FOR YEARS WAS SWEPT OUT OF EXISTENCE IN THE 90'S BY FLOODS. THAT MADE THE CLOSEST RANGE 40 OR SO MILES AWAY. I HAVE LONG ENVIED THE FOLKS WITH A 50 OR 100 RANGE STARTING AT THEIR BACK PORCH. DUTCH

    GETTING TO KNOW YOU

    WHEN HITCH HIKING IN WYOMING IN 1945 AND 46 . I NOTICED THAT WHEN STICKING YOUR HAND, CUPPED, OUT A CAR WINDOW MOVING AT 60 MPH THERE WAS VERY LITTLE BACK PRESSURE.

    Is 70 grains 3f enough umph

    THE QUESTION "IS 70 GRAINS ETC..IS NOT A GOOD ONE BECAUSE THERE IS NO MENTION OF THE CALIBER. IF YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT A .30 RIFLE THAT WOULLD BE A HELL OF A CHARGE. IF IT WERE A VERY LARGE CALIBER IT MIGHT BE A TAD LIGHT I USED 73 GRAINS OF 2FF FOR BOTH 50 AND 100 YARDS DUTCH

    OH THE MIX MIGHT BE HIGHER THAN THE 2FF BUT LOWER THAN THE THREEFFF. THIS IS JUST YOUR AND MY SPECULATION. OM;Y THE TARGETS WIL TELL.I HOPE ALL SHOTS ARE BENCH REST SO THEY ALL HAVE THE ADVANTAGE OF THAT PROCESS. EXPERIMENTS SUCH AS THIS USUALLY ASSUME THAT THE SUGGESTER OF THE EXPERIMENT IS...

    Is 70 grains 3f enough umph

    THINKING WHAT DIFFERING LOADS WILL DO IS USUALLY A BIG WASTE OF TIME. THE ONLY WAY TO JUDGE WHAT A RIFLE WILL DO IS TO SEE WHAT IT DOES TO A TARGET. THAT'S THE ONLY PURPOSE OF FIRING THE RIFLE IN THE FIRST PLACE. WE CAN SPECULATE ON WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF WE ADD HIS OR CHANGE THAT, BUT ALL...

    I CAN THINK OF NO POINT INUSING A FIFTY/FIFTY 2FF AND 3FFF MIX.IT WOULD LACK THE ADVANTAGES OF BOTH POWDERS FOR NO GAIN. IF THERE WERE ANY ADVANTAFE IN DOING SO IT PROBABLY WOULD HAVE BEEN DONE LONG AGO TO MAKE YOUR QUESTION MORE INTERESTING I WOULD SUGGEST YOU FIRE F ROUNDS OF 2FF AT ONE...
