Well it was my first weekend with my new 10FCP-K .308 Win.
Saturday went to the range with 2 boxes of Winchester 147Gr White Box, just to break in the barrel. It was the most disappointing experience I have ever had shooting !
The grouping (if you can call it that !) was in the 4 to 5 class, more like a shot pattern then a group !! I did consider using it as a boat paddle ..but I dont own a boat.
Well went back today (Sunday) with 50 round of prepped Federal Brass, 168 Gr. SMK, and some Varget powder, I started at 45 grains of Varget, and set the bullet .003
off the lands (this thing has a very short throat for a factory barrel !!) Holly cr@p !!!
I have a Ύ group ! well now we are talking something I can work with. After some tweeking of the load (and Im not finished !) I was shooting about 50% ½ / 50% Ό from an out of the box rifle !!! ..
The only thing that I can (now) complain about is that the stocks wrist is to thin for my liking, its the size of a hot dog ! No bun !! ( and, dame I like a good set of buns )
