i changed my ruger frontier in 338 fed from scout scope to conventional this past weekend. i only had a bushnell banner 1.5-4.5x32 laying around so i stuck it on it. i hadn't shot it myself in several years since my son was using it. on my 50 yard range out back it shot 3 shots into 1 ragged hole with fusion 200gr factory loads. i did it about 5 times. hot barrel, cold barrel, it didn't matter. i know 50 yards ain't far but i highly doubt the groups would change much at 100 yards with good glass. as i was drilling these holes i was thinking that the trigger was kind of stiff and could use some work. i don't think i'll bother now.
