I have been asked "how does it shoot?"
Do not save targets, but with R-19, three shot groups:
Berger 115, 26 groups =.9188"
Speer 120, 16 groups=.8798"
It is not really finicky about powder or bullets. Probably used 10 different powders and 8 to 10 bullets.
R-19 was the best and the two mentioned bullets also worked the best.
