Shot this morning ,

That looks like a fun low recoil caliber, dang that's some killer accuracy you got going on there with it.
Is that rifle or Pistol?
What power scope are you using?
A Savage M12 rifle , scope 36X .
221 fireball!!! Nice shootin.

What brass?

@Starline Brass ....... how about some 221FB
Lapua Been looking for some more , Lapua was to start making again this year .
 
What exactly does the bolt sleeping include? Metal sleeve down the entire bolt?
bolt sleeping include??? PT&G sleeve is the main bolt body , stock sleeve was .692 dia and the new one is .700 dia .Fits better in the action , no slope better alignment.

Oh ok I seen a picture somewhere that looked kind of like a shim sort of deal, I didn’t realize it’s basically new bolt made to tighter tolerances. Thank you
 
Great shooting Art, you still got it! My friend back in New Mexico absolutely loves H335 in his 222 mag. Glad to see it does so well in your Fireball, I think a lot of people would be stuck with quicker burning powders. You've proven it certainly works great!

The target I shot before this one , was the same load same everything , with two different custom bullets shot very poorly . Not saying they are bad bullets , I guess just need to be loaded different . But for this gun I'll stay with Berger bullets and the load I worked up , I'm happy with this load .
