Hadn't shot any of the n120 in years but did have a lb on hand. Years back I had some very good groups with it in the 50 and 45 cal. So I weighed up a few loads to try this morning. Richard had gotten my bolt fixed for the sav-pac so I decided to give it a try with it.Using the 250 sst;s Got it dialed in at 100 yds but had to guess how much to dial up at 300, the first shot was on the money but little to the right.So clicked it one click to the left.The next 3 shots were pretty dang good.Measured .701 center to center. I used n110-10 grs/ n120 -60 grs. Would have tried them in my rem-shilin but didn't have enough loads left. Did try clays 6gr/H4198 -66grs with a barnes 290 though. Shot the first 3 and they made a big group but they slid down the barrel so loose by them selfves. So the next 3 I got a brain storm and decided to knurl the a little. I thought I had them sized right but by my mike the were .1000 to small. Any way got a good group with them also..721 Today was my lucky day,should have gotten a lottery ticket.

Great shootin'!
Wish that 10 N110/60 N120 load wasn't so darned temp sensitive! It is sooo acurate of a load otherwise.

Good shooting Frank (Herman is his middle name). Man I wish I could have been there today! I actually have not touched my gun or my loads since I brought them home last week. The leg is giving me the butt!

I don't think I've ever seen N120 except named on the forum and at the challenge and on the internet websites. Some day I'll walk up on a lb and take it home. 10

Richard wished you could have been too.It was a great day to shoot,cold,still,cloudy no mirage. Hope you get to feeling by next week. I have been up since 2 am with my legs,Doc says that I just have to live with it. I wished the n120 would come more available It shot very good for me untill it came unavaiable. I remember one time I ordered a 5 lb can and it sit on the ship for a long time before they let it be unloaded. Found some old targets using it in the 50 and 45. 50 cal: 45 cal: Using n120 as booster:
