Just got back from the range. Pretty pleased with the results. First three shots at 50 to check bore-sighting were touching (168 Matchkings, 42gr RL15, CCI BR2). Adjusted the scope and went to 100.
Not easy to hold on the target I brought with the little 2.5, but the first three 165gr ABs went right at 1". Tried to add a couple, but that spread out to just under 2". Put it up to cool while I shot something else.
Went back to the Sierras. First 3 went 1 3/16". Switched to the next target and put 3 in 1/2". A fluke no doubt, but still nice. Maybe after hunting season I'll put a little more glass on it and see what's what, or maybe try one of my homemade open squares instead of the 8" black with 1.5" red center. Regardless, it definitely made the cut for the purpose I bought it for.
Showed it to a couple guys who never heard of the SS Henrys. Both were pretty impressed with what $400 will buy. Me too.
