Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Montana range report, good and bad.

After shooting 10 rounds with the 120gr NBT (cheap practice load), I switched to the 120gr TTSX at 3000fps (hunting load). Fired two loose, then the last 3 with control on the fore-end. Just confirmed what I already knew.

For what it's worth, I never believed the claims that "light" rifles were harder to shoot when I owned the T3 Tikklers. They were easy to shoot, but nearly 1-pound heavier. After owning this Montana, I found that it requires a different technique for me to shoot well, but is a lot more enjoyable to carry

Next time out I'll try to take pics of groups using a sling.
