First Range Results- 1980s Savage 110DL lefty 30-06

Question for you, was the lower hole on both targets the 1st round shot?

Perfectly adequate for game <200yds with factory ammo assuming you don't load your own. You could try some premium factory ammo to see if it shoots a little tighter but your quarry won't know the difference if you do your part.

I'd have to pull some old files and check but IIRC my mid-80s 110 shot pretty much the same.

Actually if my memory serves me well, the lowest hole in both groups was the third shot. So don't know if I pulled the shots (totally plausible) or if it dropped after the barrel heated up by the third shot to degree it started affecting impact.

I'm glad it came together for you. A lighter trigger and a bedding job might yield even smaller groups.

Those are very good groups with factory ammo. Best of luck
