"DUNAMIS"...… inherent power, power residing in a thing by virtue of its nature.

My new custom .45cal muzzleloading rifle was built by Bestill Creations LLC on a Remington 700 S/A single shot.

McMillan Game Warden stock, McWoody finish
Bedded action
Bedded mount w/#8
.250 recoil lug
AGS Gen2 breech plug w/modules
Rock Creek 1:19 twist, large varmint contour, proprietary to Bestill Creations
LR Customs … T-Rex CSTM muzzle brake
Jewell trigger
Nightforce NXS 5.5-22x50 MOAR








First 5 rounds fired at 107yds using Fury Star Tip2 land riding bullets



After doing some ballistics work, a couple rounds at 500yds.
Range started filling so I quit shooting.

Dang! I had no idea a ML was capable of that. Nice shooting!

 

[Rabun]

Beautiful ML you have there and a fine shooter! What powder/charge are you using?

Thank you. I'm using Blackhorn 2009 (BH209).
Charge is heavier than can be used in production rifles.

 

[Rabun]

It sure reaches on out there!

I'm changing to a heavier bullet, and stretching it out even further

I'll stick with my Hawken, Renegade and Seneca....Nice rifle but it completely defeats the purpose of muzzleloading....to challenge one's self.

And that's perfectly fine. Been there myself. Been shooting the muzz since "73".
However, shooting less than a 2" group IS a challenge of one's self

I am brand new to muzzleloading but I just took my inexpensive entry level CVA Wolf to the range last week. At 100 yds my first three shots were all touching in and area the size of a quarter. I have never even been able to shoot groups like that with my centerfire. Was using 100 grns White Hot Pellets and 250 grn Barnes T- EZ. I became a Barnes believer when I Shot hard quartering away on an almost 300 lb sow at 70 yds. After passing completely through 2’ of pig it still went through the off side front leg bone upon exit. Great ammo!

I don't know what it is about the Wolf, must be the barrel, but the dang things shoot very well with a variety of powder and bullets. Terrific little gun I only have $240 in for the gun and scope.

Finally took DUNAMIS out for a couple photos in the sunlight.

Very nice!

Looks like somebody re-invented the bolt action centerfire rifle in a way to make it legal in muzzleloader season?

 

[Hillbilly stalker]

Looks like a nice long range shooting machine, and a high dollar one at that. Nice rifle.

Its loaded exactly like any other muzzleloader. Uses a breech plug and an ignition source just like any other muzzleloader. It just looks different.

 

[Hillbilly stalker]

I've got a cheap CVA .45 caliber that bolts like that also. I'm waiting
on a young man to gift it too. It's a pain to clean. Yours is a nice one. Not trying to hijack the thread, it's just that bolt action ML's have been around for awhile, mines 15 plus years old.

 

[BarnesAddict]

Do a search and find out how long ago inline ignition systems were invented

 

[Jim Thompson]

Man I love the look of that! The coloration is great.

Plus you mentioned BH209 and my heart fluttered

 

[deermaster13]

Nice!
