Thanks Joe,
Yes very pleased with it.
As long as you give the barrels time to cool it is super accurate for hunting.

Well I am slowly sorting my BD14 out.
I have found a good load for my 7x65R and 22 Hornet and am now just bringing the Hornet barrel in to the same point of impact as the 7x65R.
Today was not the ideal conditions for shooting a Hornet loaded with 35 grain VMax projectiles but I am getting there.
The below group measured about 40mm for 6 shots, with a strong left to right wind.
Not a great group but you can see the potential is there. I probably did not let the 7x65R cool enough before shooting the last shot (Bottom hole), but I was getting tired and impatient to pack up and head home.
I will test again next time with fresh eyes and hopefully less wind, but I suspect it is pretty close to spot on given today's left to right wind.

Looking good. I think if you get moa at 100m with each barrel then pack up and start hunting.

Thanks Chuck, yeah I think your right.
Also I think 2 shots from each barrel is enough.
After that the group starts to open a little with those thin barrels.
Gee it's a real pleasure to operate though.

I'm still stuck on the BD14, on one hand it's the most practical gun around and on the other it's the most impractical gun around.

It's really confusing.
I'm soft and I don't care. :dance:

I can honestly say it is the best gun I have purchased in my life.
And that's a big call.
