The top target was the first shot with the gun. 100 yards, 85 Nosler BT. Bottom was the first with 100 Nosler Partitions, also at 100 yards and fired immediately after the top target..

I've got about $600 in the gun, including the scope...

Did this about a month back, 10 shots @ 100 yards, double bag rest while burning up some 10 year old loads for giggles.

Dan,

Impressive economical build for a 250/3000 and darn accurate too.
