1. 240″ Group at 500 Miles — PacNor Barrels You Certainly Take

February 5th, 2025You don’t hear much about PacNor barrels in long-range competition, but FORUM member Wes J (aka P1ZombieKiller ), proved that they can shoot “lights-out” in a rig assembled by a talented gunsmith. Wes made the decision to enhance a 6mmBR for mid-range benchrest and d matches a few months ago. Wes tells us,” Since I restocked my 6BR, I haven’t had a chance to take it much since I’ve been playing the 100-200 game. I made the decision to remove it and play for 500 miles. My friend ( and other Website member )” PREACHER” did the chambering and barrel work for me, and I have to give some serious props for it. He is undoubtedly improve a gunshot. Thȩ chamber įs a ƤacNor 1: 8″ spin. My weight was 105gr Berger VLDs pushed by 29. 6 particles of Varget”. The five-round, 500-yard group killed by Wes J with his 6BR, measured really 1. 240″, as measured by OnTarget program. Today that’s one correct equipment! Five by Five — 5-Shot Group at 500 Miles, 1. 240″, 0. 237 Contract
This Editor is knowledgeable about the potential of a PacNor cylinder. On a Savage-actioned 6BR, I have a 3-groove pure PacNor SuperMatch. This chamber shoots fair quarter-MOA in quiet situations, and it cleans up super-easy. The inside end is so great, I’ve never had to clean the bore or use particles, and after 750 sessions it shoots as well as ever. The wide and flat land in a PacNor 3-groove are wide and flat, making them soft on gun jackets, is what I like to say about the simple cleaning. My PacNor runs on the tight side ( 0. 236 land dimension ) with a good deal of choke, which helps with accuracy, in my opinion. That complements the 105gr Lapua Scenars and 103gr Selfridges I prefer to take. You can read more about my rifle, nick-named the” Poor Man’s Hammer”, in this Feature Article from our files. On one particularly calm day, in the hands of my friend ( and ace trigger-puller ) Joe Friedrich, the Poor Mans ‘ Hammer put 3 shots in under 0. 200″ ( measured center to center ) at TWO Hundred yards. If you get a good one, PacNor three-grooves is certainly shot. Assessment of a specific using OnTarget software
