Actually my BSA CF2 Stutzen is my most unlucky rifle. It was the first one I ever brought but has never grassed a Deer. It has always been wrong deer (too good to shoot or I could not afford the fees) wrong sex so out of season of on several times no safe backstop so an unsafe shot. The .270 that I am shooting now is an older BSA Majestic Featherweight Deluxe as the CF2 is listed for collection only. I refuse to have the muzzle chopped on this Majestic so no Moderator. However the Stutzen has shown excellent accuracy over the years and even won the annual 600 yard club shoot two years running. So they changed to rules to disqualify it. I was shooting Nosler 130 Grain Ballistic Tips, of course before the expanding ammunition nonsense. The Stutzen has been carried and uses on the range in inclement weather includign a blizzard that blew in off the Thames estuary whilst shooting on Purfleet ranges yet i have noticed no adverse effects on accuracy that cannot be attributed to my declining eyesight. It's just not as good as it once was even with corrective glasses.
Now the Federal Fusion 150 grain bullet seems to do a good number on Roe from my very limited experience with it, one Roe Buck does not make a good sample, but I will certainly use it again.
Oh Manlicher_Stu, I tend to use faster powders due to the short barrel and H-380 has worked very well indeed. Reduces the muzzle fire ball considerably.
