After all the meetings today for work i was on my way home thinking to myself.. "wish I could get some time to shoot the Land Cannon". Well I headed right to my range and got the Gun out of the safe and ran a Target out to 200 yards..... I figured i had enough time to shoot before dark. the conditions were not ideal with temps in the mid 20's and 10-15 mph winds gusting to 20mph.. but i wanted to shoot....... Not only was this a rushed session for the day it was my first time on my new Sinclair competition Bench-rest and edgewood rear bag that the family bought for me for Christmas. I am using the "go to" charge of 78 grains o imr4198. The first 3 bullets were sized full formed and pushed down the barrel fairly easy, and the next 3 bullets we smooth sized and went down with difficulty but with a heavy 2 hands i got them to seat on the powder..... I will resize next time but was pushed for time today. but anyway with the higher than wanted winds and cold i was VERY pleased the way My Hankins SPML (Land Cannon) and the Pittman Bullets accumax performed today.

Great shooting and enthusiasm to get out there in the cold and wind. I'll bet you really liked the Sinclair rest too, it is an awesome rest.

That's some good shooting in a 15 mph wind at 200 yards.
