Sorry to hear, all the best for everyone involved.

How do you go getting the 350 grain matchkings for the 375? Hard to get, what price?

They are off and on. Easy to get but they have to believe in stock first.

I think i have sorted out load development ;D

141gr 2225 with a 350gr SMK at 3249fps. I only had 2 rounds left to fire so the 3249 is the average of 3240 & 3258. Bolt lift is easy but it can get hard when you hit primary extraction so the load is at the top end of the pressure scale. I have no idea how Kirby was able to get the 350SMK's past 3400 with Retumbo, it must be altitude or temp.

Here is the target, 85mm ctc at 965 yards

The pic is on its side for some reason, it isn't in photobucket so who knows. The group should be vertical.

if i wanted a 408 Cheytac i just have to put in a permit and it will be approved. The only calibre on the restricted list in vic is a 50bmg.

Have a look at this

We might have to try and do it here.
