this quick session was with the same winchester powerpoints that the gun seemed to kind of like.

I added a 1" black leather montana sling, I really like it. (who's gonna tell me it's upside down? grin )

100 yds, 3 shots on a clean cold barrel..

probably a bit under 3/4" but i'm callin it 3/4"

I did continue after this, gave it one click left & repeated, got the same sort of group but it was centered over the POA a little better.

I'm happy with this.


That was what my last honest efforts netted with factory loads. I've got dies, brass, bullets, primers... I think I'll just give backwoodsbrian a goody bag to load up for me & we'll see if we can tighten things a bit further but I really am happy with the above group in a hunting rifle.

Plus I've since changed up for what I feel is a better scope & haven't shot it yet wearing the new glass.

like I said, i feel good about this one. It shows promise I think.


Something clever here.
