Hi All,
Thank you for your repies about the heavier bullets, although I cannot think of a use for them here, it's nice to know these things.............. just in case
Now last week I sighted in the reciever peep sight on my 270 win BSA Majestic featherweight, I am using Sierra 140 Grn BTSP bullets and chronographed them at 2900 fps from it's 22" barrel. However this load is uncomfortable to shoot from the bench. The rifle only weighs 6 1/4lbs. Due ot it's light weight think I need to get a longer eye relief scope than the one I have for it just now which is why I set up the peep sight. Need more practice with the peep though
