Checkmaker™ Gas Checks and a 30 caliber Spitzer
Range Results
By Ben Hays
I’d been wanting to take my new NOE 311365’s to the range and test them in my 308 Win.
Today, seemed like a good day to do it !
I decided to test the new bullets in my 98 Mauser , VZ-24 . The rifle has a 6.5 X 20 Variable ,30 mm tube, Leupold Vari X III with tapered cross hairs and a fine dot. The rifle has a 12 oz. trigger and is one of my favorite rifles.
All groups below are 5 shots at 100 yds. For my ” 1st Outing ” with the 311365, I was pleased.
While I was at the range , I fired a few 311291’s. They also shot pretty good.
All of my g/c’s that you’ll see in the groups below were made with Pat Marlin’s CheckMaker™ tool out of Amerimax .014 ” thickness aluminum.
Here is a photo of the NOE, Brass , 311365 mold. A true joy to cast with (and shoot also , I might add! )
The group below is sub inch for 5 shots. 4 of the bullets are in about 5/8″ or so.
