Got out with the .308 rig this morning...
It was 65 degrees and pouring rain, but turned out to be a pretty good day...
Set up at 300yd and managed to put up some decent groups with 168gr Federal Gold Medal Match, most averaging in the .5"-.75" range. This one was the best of the day...
Had the Mosin M38 out as well...
Was just smackin some steel at 100yd with this one. First time out with it and in true Mosin form the windage was WAY off at 100yd. Stretched it out to 300yd for a few shots and couldn't hit the damn plate, but the windage was a LOT closer to point of aim at that distance. Need to drift the front sight a bit and it should be a pretty accurate rifle if I can do my part with the iron sights. It's a helluva fun shooter.
Also got to meet up with Mudbug out there this morning. He had is .17WSM Savage B-Mag and WOW what a sweet little rifle! He's a great guy and I am very fortunate to have been able to meet him in person. We had our 590A1's out and were sending some slugs out to the 100yd steel. What a great time!
Mudbug if you're reading this, it was a pleasure to meet you Sir!
