First range day:
Turned top turret about 5 1/2 mil to account for the 20 moa base, looked good down the bore at 100 yards and took a shot. On paper, but low and left. Made my adjustments and shot again. Still on paper, but even lower and further left - D'oh! Doubled the wrong adjustment in the correct direction and it's close enough to start some groups.
First two range days I shot the following ammo in 10 3 shots groups over about 30 minutes. Started heavy on the first target, then reversed on the second. Shot from a bench on sunny days with a little breeze.
Federal VShok 100gr Game king btsp
Winchester deer season xp 95gr
Federal PShok 80gr
Hornady Vmax 75gr
Hornady Vmax 58gr
Target #1 100 yards
Target #2 100 yards
The rifle felt fantastic, and operated flawlessly. But I know my groups could be better. Perhaps I need more rounds through the barrel, but most likely I just need practice.....I'm very new to this.
