Hey all. Dug out the 22/250 this evening. It's an early T3 in an "X" stock. Speed bumps and all. Found an old box of Red Prairies. Ran 5 through with no regard for barrel temp or such. Just checking zero. Factory rings and a 3.5-10 vx3 i. It isn't supposed to be this easy.

I know I know! I was in a hurry dodging rain showers. I'll do better next time. Penmanship is lacking I admit. 😊

Oh I know it. Unfortunately I have a five shot attention span. 😁

They do! Weird Euro trash economy crap. Of the ones I've worked with MOA was the worst. Half MOA was the norm. They ain't perfect,but they will damn sure do. I like em.

Buddy of mine bought a new Tikka a couple years back... a .243 if I remember correctly.

We roughly sighted it in on a rock at 50 yards.... then shot 4 or 5 groups with it.... and they were all between 2” and 3”.

I thought WTF?

So we walked out and pulled the target off the 300 yard berm.... moved it to 100.... and wouldn’t you know, it shot several groups under 3/4”.

When I bought my 223 I picked up a box of 75 BTHP’s. I topped it with a SWFA and headed to the range. 3 shots to zero, then 4 in a little cluster.

Then I was like “well now what?”

Wondering when the 6CM is gonna come along...

Zactly! Who do we lobby to make that happen? Id chip in for the reamers. Hmmm. Who do we know on here that has the ear of various rifle manufacturers?

They'll come. The 6 is catching on faster than the 6.5 did, I think. Even stodgy old Howa is making them.
