[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 1950707, member: 63925"] OK, almost to range but had to load some High Performance Loads 😅😂🤣 for the old 94. I measured the CBTO on my standard Sierra Pro Hunter FN 150 gr load so I know the 150 gr Pro Hunter SP will definitely be off lands etc. I loaded up with Varget and glad I measured the COAL! Definitely a single top feed since the new COAL will not clear the tube exit for ramp up. But I did try it single top feed in backyard just to make sure it would cycle eject and does so perfect! So hard part over or at least so I think is behind me so next is the range challenge. I am hoping to do that by end of week. But the loads do look nice as a spitzer in stead of FN! Kind of fun to see what happens with the 150 SP load. But I also loaded up some fresh 150 ProHunter FN's so maybe they will shoot better! Heck this 1954 Mod 94 is probably older than 90% of folks on the LRH (Dang but not me) ! Action still slick as snot! [/QUOTE]
