CPA - Don McDowell - 05-15-2015
Whooohoooo
With any luck my CPA 22 ships today
Anxious to get my hands on that bugger and see if it can whack the rams, and better yet, can I hold it steady enough for the chickens?

Still waiting on the tracking number...
Sure anxious to see how it likes this Norma match ammo.
RE: CPA - Kurt - 05-15-2015
If they used the same chamber reamer they did in mine the chamber will be tight and it will stack the bullets on top of each other down range.
RE: CPA - Don McDowell - 05-15-2015
I'm hoping this thing will do that. Have a bunch of ammo to test thru it. Think I'll just jump right to the rams and do the load testing. If it finds a "best" ammo on the rams the rest of them will fall right into place.

Don.
There is no reason that rifle wont shoot. These three test shot groups I shot under not to good conditions when I got the DZ scope and I went right out to get some sight settings. I used the bulk fed auto match and Norma Tec. The Norma match shoots better in mine then these groups that I shot.
The Orange pastors are 2" and the 200 yard spot has two groups on it to check how responsive the adjustments are on the scope. I shot 4 on top and made a one MOA sight change down and shot the 4 on the bottom. The horizontal is the wind. The vertical is less then one inch @ 200 yards using that ammo.
I don't know what barrel you ordered for yours but mine is a Douglas premium about a #5 28" long.

My barrel is the Douglas. I suspect with the choices in ammo I have for it, there'll be something it likes.
