Today was a great day for my son and I. His new savage 11/111 .243 and my not new savage 93r17 .
i put a new scope on the 17 while my son was burning in a brand new barrel. The 17 was .473 5 shot group at 100 yards. Im happy with that. And my sons 243 after about 40 rounds with cleaning the barrel every 3 shots is shooting .822 3 shot group at 100 yards. He looks at me and says that made our 32 cold degrees for 3 hours well worth our time. I have to agree. If i can figure out how to post pics from my mobile phone youll get to see for yourself.

I like it for squirrel fox no yotes under my belt yet fun on paper wind is hell thats why i put a mildot scope on it i want to start playing on windy days to see if i can get comfortable with it and if can still stay accurate. I love the 20 grain xtp ammo first time trying it today i have always shot the 17 grain.ammo.
