It's still very picky as far as bullets and powders go. Some shoot well some not so well.
This is 20 rounds at 100 yards with 130gr Speer HP.

Steve this about a Mini-30 right? What powder, I'm not interested in how much you used to charge the case...

That target was 27gr AA 2015 with 130gr Speer. Very mild load, 2015 was never a good choice as far as velocity goes, accurate, but slow.

Here is what my wife bought me on my birthday. She just bought me the Nikon P-233 3-9x40mm lastnight and I had to use the UTG-214D mount. The front of the scope was sitting on top of the top rail. It works out though, I can still use the iron sights. Hope you guys like what I've done so far.

nice set up. i really like that you can use the scope and irons. many posters have asked how to accomplish this with a mini, and all i could ever come with is see through rings. i like your set up better. this gun is black and evil enough to worry darth vader.......
