Hi guys....Dan here with the third installment on the NOE 311291 trials..
This time the platform was my 1919 1903 Rock Island Springfield with a Lyman 24x LWBR scope..and before you collectors start screaming (moaning anyways) ..I got this rifle as a botched up sporter..it had been T&D for a scope and shoved into an after market stock..beded with wood putty..needless to say the previous owner never got to shoot it...it does sport a pristine High Standard 4 grove barrel...I've sliped it into a nice period "C" stock ..inspected twice by Daniel A Leary...I've also added all the rest of the correct fun stuff..original hardware etc...
Here's a picture of it..
As I said this is the third and last installment on my retesting of the 311291 design..this bullet cast from a NOE (Night Owl Enterprise) mold has proven to be an outstanding performer..period..
Here are the groups I got out of it using the above mentioned platform...
Perhaps I should explain the "bad Bullet".. I had WRONGLY used a charged case to check the AOL ..the bullet pulled from the case leaving the gas check in the case when I tried to extract it,so I reseated the bullet slightly deeper than the others..obviously I created a load with it's own mind..and speaking of "mind"..notice how mine gets tried as I continue to shoot and the groups open up..
I also tried the NOE 311407 MOD ..need more testing there..
For my results using this bullet in the 30-30 and .308 Win. please follow these links...they are worth a glance for sure..
