Chronograph Tests: .45-120 Using A 540 Grain Bullet (Ruger No. 1)

In this video I show the testing of a new 540 grain cast bullet for use in my Ruger No. 1 chambered for .45-120. Although the previous load I relied on - a 535 grain Postel-shaped cast - worked well, this new bullet (an "Accurate 45-540W") with its blunt nose will now be my first choice when it comes to moose hunting going forward.

The chronograph used in this video is a Caldwell G2 unit that allows me to connect using bluetooth to my Android phone; simple to set up and works well for indoors environments.
