Re: Gibbs African Rifle 72 caliber

Shot the African again today.
100gr charge with the 780gr projectiles were averaging 925fps.
Tried a couple of 130gr loads and got a bit over 1100fps with a noticeable increase in recoil. Still tolerable though.

Only the 100yd range was available so grouping wasn’t stellar.

Still, flying straight and not tumbling.



The stock ghost ring is too big for my liking (like a 20yd fov at 100yds) so I drilled a tiny hole through a screw and used a brass thumb nut to hold it into the original ring making the aperture much smaller.
