Rifle is sighted in
« on: September 26, 2014, 10:27:16 PM »
Got this little fella on my place while out checking trail cams tonight.  375 yards...I was worried I still didn't have my gun dialed in the last time I shot...no time to get a good setup...threw the gun over the hood and bam...dead coyote.

Good enough  :tup:
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

7mm mag in 700 xcr...my deer/elk setup.  I bought a m&p15 sport to drag along with me for just these instances of incidental coyotes but I haven't taken the time to get any sights on it yet  :bash:

nice shoot.  I added the Jewel trigger to my Remington 700 22-250 and it shoots amazing.  Nice light smooth keeps groups pretty darn tight.

I'm jealous of your trigger...it's something I need to do!  The adjustable trigger is ok, but definitely too stiff.
