    I had forgot I made a scope mounting adjustment since the last time out, so once I accounted for that and then the rifle did what she should do. I had brought three different boxes of rounds with me, all grouped relatively well, 3 round groups in the .5-.75 MOA area. 20 rounds with little pause between rounds other than mag reloads sub moa (read big hole in target). It was a fun outing for me, weather was perfect!

    Edit:

    Ammo shot was Hornady match 147gr, Hornady "American gunner" 140gr and Hornady "whitetail" 129gr

    I've shot roughly 150 rounds of it total at 100 yards. Out of the rounds I've used in the rifle it performs on par with anything else and is affordable! I haven't had the opportunity to stretch the rifle out to any decent distance though.

    I have the same rifle, with the same buttstock, and I like the American Gunner 140's. Pretty consistently around .75 moa for me, and the sd and es are equal to or better than the lots of 120 eld and 140 eld match that I chrono'd.
