There’s some footage somewhere showing muzzle flip comparisons in muzzle rise between the Rhino and a S&W. There was considerably less with the Chiappa.

Not had chance to try it yet. If all goes to plan will go Friday.

I finally get to post in this thread because I very rarely buy another gun. However earlier this month I bought a pre-owned Pedersoli repro Remington Rolling Block in .45/70. It was private sale and it came with extras including 4 moulds and the Lee reloading manual. The previous owner only shot smokeless and the few rounds that he gave me shot really well and I know his load data.
Where it gets interesting for me is I intend to use the rifle for my club's BPCR matches so it's going be the case of which bullet and how much BP behind it. And yes I know you can't get 70gn of black in a modern cartridge case.

I recently acquired a new Bergara B14R - a .22RF version of the B14HMR, with an 18 inch barrel 1-in-16" twist. It is pre-threaded for suppressor, which is handy.

I have only had it out once so far for a brief sighting-in, but it shoots really nice one MOA groups at 50 yards.

Pity match-grade ammunition is in such short supply here, and fiendishly expensive. I paid NZ$43.00 for a box of 50 rounds the other day.

WARNING INSTASHITE LINK!
Admin.
First 6 shots.
The lowest one in the "A" box was my first shot. PoA was the "A"
The highest one in the "A" box was my second shot. PoA was the horizontal line at the top of the "A" box.

I have no explanation for the one in the "D" box.

Best you host the photos somewhere reputable as some of the membership will not follow links to these corrupt platforms.

At least in future say where the link is to so people can avoid following it.

I can never understand why people feel the need to deal with these dodgy hosting sites or any hosting site when its so easy to edit your pics yourself and up load them straight from the desktop. ttiuwp

Thanks for the suggestion. Will bear that in mind for future reference.
