[QUOTE="kraky2, post: 219632, member: 3532"] I have one of the earlier ul's and it was a real bitch to find a load for (and I should have used a worse word). I was about to try and pedal it or get a new barrel and then started playing with retumbo. I first found decent accuracy with the 200 ab and about 86 grains retumbo. Then ran a hair over 88 grains with a 180 tsx and found it to be a better combo. Work up of course if you try these loads although they don't seem hot. The tsx load will shoot under 3" at 300 yds. This from a gun that I couldn't necessarily keep on a pie plate at 200 yds. I still think there is something wrong with the barrel on that gun but am satisfied with sub 3" at 300. I can't tell you how many powder/bullet combo's I had tried before retumbo just happened to save the day. Seems like the later model ul's are much better shooters but I can say that in my small town I know of about 3 ofthe early ones that were as bad as mine to get to shoot. [/QUOTE]
