I am in the process of getting a Westley 1881 MBL (also with tang and heel sights) with a Medford barrel in 500/450 #2.

I plan to shoot this rifle at the South River Gun Club (SRGC) which just reopened its rifle range. They have 50/100/200 yd ranges.

For loads, I will initially try either the 350 or 400 gr PP bullets from Buffalo at 50 and then 100 yds. I will use NfB loadings initially and if all is well, will try black.

I notice there are several forum members from Georgia. If you want to meet at teh SRGC to shoot, email me at fj60@earthlink.net to coordinate.

Scott, it is good to see you are getting your Westley sorted out. Wayne, sorry about your friend: I will try not to duplicate his shooting.
