Finally got my scope in yesterday so i hurried up and threw it on and got it level. Grabbed my ammo and headed to the farm.
Wobbly Bipod, its not exactly made to fit but it was better than nothing..
190gr SMK (thanks Mr Doug!) 68grs H4831, BR-2, RP Brass.
Threw these reloads together to get a feel for the gun. Gonna chrono today, also have some loads starting at 68grs up to the listed max of 73grs. All seated the same depth, 3.510"
9rounds after sighting in.. And no i wasnt aiming for that target, actually aiming for the one below that black circle about 20" lower. Its got a 20MOA Base and i got the windage right shooting at 50yds and it was about 10" high then..
IF i didnt count that one high right, it was about 7/8" group. with it, its 1.25".
Hope to have a load figured out before Saturday. I shot the rifle 6 times Friday with no scope just shooting at the sand bank on the creek, Shot 4 rounds at 50yds getting it sighted in, and the 9rds at 100yds. So its got a total of 19rds down tube so far.
