320 pellets of number 7 1/2 at 3 1/4 dram. That sounds like a 1 1/8 ounce loading and if so that means he was ordering the gun to shoot 80-81 percent at 40 yards. That is a long range killing machine. Have you ever patterned it with modern loads?

Pete,
The VHE is no longer at 15", it had been shortened up a bit quite some time ago... Recent patterns are very tight...

Best, CSL
