M1917 restoration.

I also tossed 20 of my 190 grain Sierra BTMK loads at him. He found out just how accurate that gun really is. He had been shooting Greek ball and I told him those don't much like light bullets. 60.3 grains of H4831sc, he shot two 5 shot 1-1/2 inch groups with open sights and his old eyes.
 
I will have to try that. I have done some good shoots in the 168-175 gr area and then fell off the wagon. I had not tired the 190s. I like H4831. Buy it in 8 lb jugs.

Original barrel or replacement?
 
My 1917 shoots 150s great, but it was converted to a .300 H&H before I owned it. However, it still has the original military barrel.
