My New 1000 Yard Rig

[scope eye]

Savage model 93 In 17HMR, I love thumbhole stocks complete with Sightron 36X Scope, look at the clearance between the barrel and the scope I don't think you could fit a C hair between them.

I am going bring this rig and ammo to the next 1000 yard shoot since they are good for 2 miles. Seriously those are pretty good numbers they have grey squirrel and chuck written all over them.

Looks great,

I am sure it is a good survival skill to have, but lets not kid ourselves that is a lot of work for 22 rim fire.

PS:7000 rounds with one pound of powder is freakin awesome.

That white thing that you see opposite the windage adjustment, is a locking screw once you zero the scope you tighten
it up and it will hold zero forever, I have had it on rifles I had not shot in a year and it had not moved. there is one for they elevation also but the scope is so close to they action that I have to trim it, and there is also a locking ring for they adjustable objective so it does not move and go out of focus due to recoil.
