I bought a model 10 Precision Carbine a little while back and struggled which scope to use. I ended up putting a bi-pod that I already had on it and a muzzle brake from Wheaton Arms, a local gunsmith, and a Meopta scope on it. went out a couple of weeks ago to test different ammo and found that this gun really likes Federal matchking 168gr. bullets. After finding the right bullets a had the chance to go to the range yesterday to get her dialed in and I am very pleased with the results.

We need to keep in mind that this is my first high power rifle and I am by no means a sharp shooter but this gun made me feel like one. After getting the scope dialed in I wanted to see what this thing would do so I let the barrel cool down and put in four shells and wow. At 100 yards, 4 shots, 3 are behind a dime. I did that?? Just wow. I imagine if I had known what I was doing.

not sure how to link photos but I'll try

You need to insert the actual URL of the photo in order to get it to show up on the forum.

Please read this.

Here's how to do it in your specific case.

1. In your Flickr account, while viewing your photo, click on "More ways to share" and then "Grab the HRML/BBCode"
2. Next, copy that really long url, but delete everything except the part in the middle after the phrase "src=" that starts with "http" and ends with ".jpg


So, if you copy the following code:
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/8373269@N02/8857640796/" title="photo 1 by xtichris, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5331/8857640796_97282c9740.jpg" width="375" height="500" alt="photo 1"></a>


You would reduce it to:http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5331/8857640796_97282c9740.jpg


3. Finally insert that into the blank space that appears when you click on the "insert image" icon here in the forum.

If you do all that, it should look like this in your post:

PS: Nice shooting!
