3.5-10x40 Leupold VX3. My best group with this gun so far in the pic. Measures 1.5 in. Hornady sst 150gr.
I know this gun/ammo combination can do better but i have a hard time controling the muzzle jump on the '06. 150gr. Remingtons did about the same. I am going to try some 165 and 180gr. stuff but I think this is just all the steadier i can hold against the recoil. I am not going to spend the money on a lead sled just to prove it can do .5 inch groups. I have already proven that with my .223 Axis ;D
