Well, I went out today to try and zero the rifle with the 200 grain Silvertips.. Again, I didn't feel like using the bench, just wanted to shoot off my hind legs and back in the front.. :lol:

Three of the lovely 200 grain Silvertips..

My first 3 shots were at the bottom of the paper.

I adjusted the sights and I shot right over the darned target, luckily one caught the paper so I cranked it back down..

The little 3 shots in the center were my next 3..

So I cranked it down, 3 shots, back up, 3 shots, a little left, 2 shots. Then, my final 3 were 2 shots in the orange and 1 outside. Worst group, but still acceptable I guess. The rifle is too much fun though. Just a fun handling rifle that seems very accurate if I steer it decently..

I think they would work on bear or moose though..
