It has been awhile since I first posted the Guyot double rifle. Since them I've made the intercepting sear and spring that were missing, fitted new front & rear sights that are slightly higher and given the stock a little tidy up. Have also been using it a lot and it is without doubt the best handling double I've ever used. The load I use is Norma brass, CCI 200 Lge rifle primers, 64 grs. Ar 2209 powder and a 230 gr. bullet at approx. 2400 fps. This is kind on the rifle and me and does the job without fuss on pigs. It regulates well and I started using this bullet for the sole reason I had about 1300 of these bullets on hand and knew I'd be using quite a few of them. They are made by Svenska Metallverken of Sweden and are called' banana peel' soft points. I have no idea where to get more when these run out but will cross that bridge when I get there. Also thought a set of snap caps might be the go. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZGYIvriQFU regards, Underlever |
