BPTR Rifle Suggestions

[Gunlaker]

I really like my current rifle, which is a Shiloh Long Range Express in .45-90 ( .45-2.4" for the purists ). It's got a 34" heavy barrel with 1:16 twist. MVA Windgage front sight, and an MVA LR Soule on the back. It also has blocks for a 28" MVA scope which is what I used this weekend ( with their Creedmoor rear mount ).

As far as loads, mine is a little lighter than some use. Starline brass annealed pretty soft, CCI BR2, 78gr Swiss 1.5, 0.060" LDPE wad. BACO 458535M1 bullet with 0.001" neck tension.

This rifle and load held better vertical than any rifle I've ever shot previously. I was quite surprised that it did so well with the light charge. I'd say it held half of the vertical than my heavy Borchardt has ever done, and that's a good rifle.

So that's what I'd recommend. If you are a little more recoil tolerant than me, I'd go the same route except with a .45-100.
