Went out for a little shooting today
« on: August 16, 2009, 12:21:32 PM »
Just wish I had more ammo that I might actually use so I can get a better idea of how it groups. Most places around here don't carry what I use, so was just using what I had left. Mainly 150 PPs from Winchester, a couple 140 Accubonds from Federal and a 130 Ballistic Tip from Winchester.

Sattelite dishes are good for something  :chuckle:... a long range target.

Two Accubonds from 450 yards. Adjusted 17 clicks up. Little breezy and off a bipod in the field, not a bench from a range. Wasn't impressed... but was probably me and not the gun.



The two previous ABonds plus one Ballistic Tip from 330 yards, 8 clicks up. Couldn't be happier with that shot.



Two Ballistic Tips from about a month ago @ 100 yards. The two were so good I didn't want to mess it up and stopped at two shots.







The BTs are, without a doubt, the most accurate load I've shot through it thus far. Accubonds aren't too far behind, but not as good. And the rifle doesn't like the 150PPs.










Unfortunately, I might be having to sell this rifle... don't want to, will try not to, but might be available in the future.

Tony, would you post this in the classifieds please?
Some people spend their entire life wondering if they made a difference. Marines don't have that problem.
