Made it to the range again with the Swiss K31with a partial box of the best performing load from the la last trial. This time I checked all the screws, and tightened a couple. I fired four 3 shot groups at 100 yards as follows: 1-3/4", 1", 1-1/4", 1" in that order. I suspect that the larger group sizes were due to the person pressing the trigger and not the ammunition I loaded. I'll repeat that test the next time at the range. It has a 2x-7x scope mounted in the scout configuration as the only modification.
I set the bullets deeper than the book said because the rifle's throat was short, measured using a comparator. The powder charge was also reduced. H4350 pushing Sierra 180gr SBT

Last Sunday afternoon I spent a few hours at the Boss's church teaching an introduction to handguns. This included safety, types, hand fit, grip and trigger press. When I agreed to do this there were 3 women interested, but about 15 showed up. We'll be meeting again primarily to reinforce grip and trigger press. A couple of the women need extra help, and appeared to be afraid to even touch a gun. We'll also explore methods of carry, and a little bit about home defense.
