Let’s see those Smokeless builds!!

I'm shooting the 350gr XLD's at 2,960fps, but so far only at targets with H4895. The same bullet shot with 120grs VOLUME of BH209 won 1st place for me at the inaugural Long Range Match at Camp Atterbury. 800, 900 and 1,000yds.
Man are these rifles accurate....... 😇
Be safe.

Hey, folks! Just got my first smokeless muzzleloader into action today (100 yard sight-in) and since the season is upon us I thought it would be cool to start a 'smokeless thread'. SO, LET'S SEE THOSE BUILDS 😁! Mine is a Jeff Hankins conversion from CVA Scout .45-70 to smokeless muzzleloader sporting Leupold Back Country rings and a Bushnell Elite 3200 4-12x40 (thanks @muskieman223 ). Stock and fore-end custom Cerakote in Kryptek by 'Ricco' at Black Dove Customs here in Kentucky and the Kydex cheek rest is from 'Matthew's Fabrication'.
For now I'm shooting Fury 275 grain Star Tip MZ's and 275 grain Star Tip MZ '2P's on top of 65 grains of IMR 4198 and a wool wad. Will update with target results as time permits. So, here's mine….Now, show me yours!! 😂🤣😇

Jeff is pretty slick with any build he does. Whether it's smokeless or centerfire.
 
This is one I just finished building
It's a SS 700 single shot action
26" Brux sendero contour
Hankins master blaster brake
Hankins breech plug
AG composites alpine hunter stock
Hankins SS picatinny rail with 8-40 screws
Ziess conquest 3-15x42 with the RZ 800 reticle
Trigger tech set at 1-1/2 #
It's cerakoted flat black
It shoots as good as it looks
300 aero max pittmans
73 gr H 4198 at 2800 FPS accuracy is fantastic
Routinely shoots 1" at 300 yards
No need to go faster our Whitetails here in Michigan Never twitch
This is my 9th build and I enjoy watching customers smile after they shoot there first group
PM sent
 
Picked up some of the Arrowheads 325's as well, what did you end up getting from Pittman? Lot's of choices to choose from on the site.
I know not directed at me but pittman 303HC with 91gr of 10x get me 3100 fps. .2"

This was 90gr of 10x

Gave 'Ceruleus' a makeover. No more is it a Benchrest style rifle. Got rid of the McMillan 'Kestros' stock, the SEB 'Max' rest and the Nightforce Competition 15-55x52 scope. Instead we now wear a Stocky's EuroMatch stock, a Henry Remple bipod and a March-X 8-80x56 scope with MTR-4 reticle.
