Are these the loads you used to break ARC's chickens?

It shoots the 180gr/2400 load fast (chicken breaker) and 180/231 is much slower but still accurate. If I keep it It'd have to have 2 loads, chicken and everything else. It shoots the 240gr well with the 2400 too, while that is way to heavy for 1/2 scale it'd be great for full size. Comparable to shooting 44/40.

I have a 38spl, 357, 25/20 and 22mag.... why I bought yet another pistol cartridge rifle is beyond me.... It's the most impractical of the 5 of them so it'll go. :)

Turn key package, just add primers and powder and away you go! LOL.

The ones I hit first weren’t found till after the match behind the pig line…

Correction on the bullet count. 2100ish bullets… I don’t math well…. ;)

I think the easy answer is to sell this rifle to Pat so that the ARC chickens can have a much safer and longer life. Image

It's a good rifle and very accurate. It shoots 180 XTP's well and fast but them poor chickens catch hell... It downloads to normal 44 spl pistol speeds with the 180's and isn't so bad. I don't need it but don't need to sell it either. It is nice if you only want one rifle for PC and full size, you'd have to do 3 different loadings but one gun would do both easily.

I will sell the rifle alone with out the loading paraphernalia but not the other way around. :)
