Hello Daryl_S,

Thanks for the help with the bullet info.

I'm happy to say that I have this neat rifle up and running. Below is my latest shooting results. I tried 3 different bullet weights; 300g, 350g, and 400g. It only took about 45 rounds with testing 6 different loads to find its sweet spot. I might do a little more tweaking because the barrels are still crossing. But even so, with the way its grouping, I'm more than pleased. With groups slightly over an inch at 50 yards, I expect to obtain groups of about 4" at 150 yards. (that's only if I could see the sights to shoot that far) Its relatively flat shooting out that range. At 150 yards it still has over 800 ft/lbs of energy. That's plenty enough for anything here in Wisconsin. Also, the pressures with this load are mild. The fired cases drop easily back into the chambers. This allows for neck sizing only which will result in long case life.
