Problems still witht eh 6mm P-H

[Brithunter]

So far I have not been able to get consistent performance or grouping and none of the groups have been what one can call good. I think the best, just found the target is a 3 shot group of 0.407" shot on August 24th 2008 however a three shot group is not really proving much in a heavy barrelled rifle like this. It has shot several of about 3/4" at 82 yards (75M) but most have been MOA and larger which just does not cut it really for a heavy barreled varmint gun in 6mm.

The stock needs a re-finish as the varnish was chipped. I tried a re-finish but the finish went all splotchy and needs to be stripped off and started again. So if I can arrange it the rifle will got up the Steve Kershaw in Yorkshire for him to give it a going over and bore scope. Once we get the report we can decide where to go from there.

Part of the problem might be we don't know how many rounds have been through the bore. The bore scope should reveal any serious wear in throat etc.

Of all the bullets tried the Hornady 87 Grn BTHP has given the best results.
