[QUOTE="7stw, post: 2115709, member: 18402"] David, What powder are you using in your stw ? I shoot a couple and was wondering. One of mine shoots best with h1000 the other with retumbo. One with Barnes ttsx 140 and the other with 160 grainers. And essentially you turn your actions into 40x style target actions ? It sounds like you have some knowledge I need to learn from. I don't have the time to practice much to 1k and beyond but 6-7 is doable for practice I'm currently not comfortable shooting past 550 at game. Much past that and it seems my rifles open up too much or my technique is bad or a combination of the two. Ill attach a couple of pics of some does I head shot at 310 and 255. Both shot with my pet .220 swift one was broadside feeding the other facing me. Also what brand of barrels are you using on your rifles. Both my swift and one of my stw's are getting close to needing new barrels. And nice shooting on the diller. [/QUOTE]
