JAZ,

I read Sherman's write up on the Nowotny. He reports that the 740 grain nei paradox slug crossed, so he shifted to the NEI 870 grain fosbery slug. He almost certainly used Unique, although does not mention so. He reports groups of 4 1/2" @50 yards with the paradox and rifle using iron sights. With the scope (+1 Lb), the paradox slugs crossed 2 1/2". He worked the rifle out to at least 100 yards, but the paradox was limited to 50 yards.

What is the evidence to suggest this drilling was originally regulated with the Super Magnum Explora round? I don't think it was made by Westley Richards and does not have SM Explora type rifled choke. I recall the bores were a little rough. I'd love to know the bore diameters and if they were touched up or not? Also, do you know the date of manufacture?

Does the Nowatny reside near us? I'd love to see how the Blue Dot rounds perform in it.
