    Investarms Santa Fe Hawken .36cal

    Recieved my order from TOW. The mink oil smells really familiar but I can't pinpoint it but I swear I smelled that before. I also got .020 dry patches to try, hopefully it isn't too tight. I have plenty of pillow ticking aswell I'll take with to the range. I wanna try mink oil, spit patch and...

    40gr Swiss 3F is what I settled on. I tried 30-50 grain but anything other than 40 opened the group way up.

    Thats what I thought, I'm striving for an 1" at 50 but idk if I'll get that. I'm trying to stick with hunting lubes because after I get my load hunting season is about the only time I'll shoot it. It didn't not like shortening, I was having fliers and big groups. Dry system seems promising but I...

    Just got back from the range, I tried shortening and dutch dry pach cause these 2 were the only lubes I had. Shot were taken at 50yds on bags. .351 cast balls with pillow ticking. The groups were shot with 40grains of Swiss. I tried different loads and 40 shot the most consistent. The ones that...

    Investarms Santa Fe Hawken .36cal

    I plan on getting out maybe today or tomorrow for a range report. The sights on mine will have to be replaced eventually. I can't see up close and it's hard for me to see them. Overall I think it's a better than average quality rifle. I can't stop starring at the barrel though cause of the lack...

    Recieved the 36 caliber Santa Fe a few days ago. First impressions are that quality seems good. I would say that it's on par with the price point. There are a few finish details I wish were better but overall pretty good. Stock finish is smooth and well finished. It's not the color or figuring I...

    Do you guys think it would be better to use a oil instead of a grease lube since 36 is a small bore? Maybe an oil instead of a grease or beeswax based lube may cause less fouling. Just a thought I wanted to get some opinions on. I mean the moose snot I made works great but it's really messy. I...

    I will post a review, supposed to get it in the next few days. I'll try to get to the range over the weekend. Lgs I checked around here don't have any .350 roundballs so I may end up ordering them.

    Yea, it's not to bad. There only a few makers that have such small calibers that are not custom.
