New FR-308 Dolphin

#1 Post by EagerNoSkill »

I have got a couple years of xmas presents early! Collected my new FTR rifle from Mik and Tina at Dolphin Guns yesterday.
As always besides been super friendly gracious hosts - Mik and Tina run a top class shooter focussed business.
The package content and manner they deliver their products is world class.
Bang for buck you will not find a better product - heck for double you wont!

Mik had my load confirmed and tested in 20 odd shots :o - I still have no idea how he just knows what to do.
He is the Jedi Master of Ballistics - I is the grasshopper! emrolleyes
Thanks M & T!

2 Tone colour scheme Blank - silver - black - silver - black

Key Stats
Dolphin F/TR stock + Dolphin Large bipod
Nesika Classic Action
Bartlein 1:13 straight fluted +- 31"
Kelby Trgger - set at 2 ounces break :o
12-42 Nightforce with NP2-DD
Weight : 8.17 kgs

Load that worked a dream
TR140 @46
CCI-BR
Lapua brass
Velocity 2885 SD / ES20

Shot it at 100 yards with 5 shots all touching cloverleaf +- .65 moa - and seriously not even comfortable on gun yet!

I was lucky enough to run my hands over this last night and test drive the trigger and the whole package is rather nice. Given the way you are shooting already ENS I have great hopes for you and the new Dolphin rifle fingerscrossed
