With each insipid response you continue to climb down the evolutionary ladder.
Please carry on!
Yes, sir it was a condescending post but only in response to a condescending comment. I have been nothing but cordial to those on this forum who have offered helpful advice, including those who have suggested the rifle would benefit from bedding. Several times I have stated that that is likely the next step and thanked the individual for the advice.
RH, I know you are one of the good guys. As are many guys posting on this subject. A lot of good minds here and I know most of us care about accuracy, contrary to what a few have said. I thought Brad would get what I was talking about with my comment, but forget, many here don't realize I'm a left handed shooter because I only have right handed rifles . I see tons of potential in your rifle buddy and know you will (in time) fine tune it to get every last speck of accuracy out of it. Most here are shooters and rifle loonies, if we weren't we'd be out fishing or playing golf instead of being here commenting on threads like this... I appreciate the kind words. Yes, I'll do what needs doing to get accuracy. I haven't disagreed with any advice given, so I really don't understand the reason for hostility. Regardless, I should have tougher skin and not childishly return snide remarks. I posted all my groups so that anyone considering a Montana could see the whole picture with my particular gun. You do have to take into consideration that some of those groups could be a reflection of my shooting as much as the rifle. I'm learning a bit about better bench technique while at the same time trying to sort out any issues the gun may have. I know me well enough to know that I'm not a perfect shooting machine. Maybe someone with sharper skills could come to a definite decision sooner, but I saw no harm is shooting a couple more groups over the next couple weeks to make sure most of the problems aren't just me. I don't know why that offends anyone to the point that they need insult me. I didn't post to brag or whine and I'm starting to wish I hadn't bothered in the first place. I appreciate your posts regarding the Montana. I also follow what you are saying. Here's how I see it. 1. Follow SAS's advice on the thread he started regarding the montana. 2. Glass bed the rifle. 3. Remember your rifle is new, so it will continue to shoot better as the barrel breaks in. 4. Over time, you'll hone your skills in shooting a light weight rifle. This may take a little experimenting. Soft towel under the forearm where the front rest is, hold it like Brad suggested, hold it like you normally do, just a little experimenting goes a long way. 5. Fine tuned handloads go a looooooooong way as well. Hint
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA
