I got my first 6.5 CM for $20

Yesterday AM, I managed to do some range time and have it all to myself. This time it's with a suppressor ...

It had quite the significant POI shift, ~8" to the right and ~6" low at 200 yards. I also cleaned the barrel too. After 15 shots it started to settle ...

3-shots at 200 yards with factory ammo Winchester deer season XP 125g extreme point lot# 44MC82.

I ran out of lot# 44MC82 so I had to shoot a different lot# 5-shots at 200 yards with factory ammo Winchester deer season XP 125g extreme point lot# 40NG71. Did not turn out as good but still ~1 MOA ... not too bad for a cheapy.

Today, I was lucky enough to find a couple of boxes of lot# 44MC82. We'll see how it goes next time, perhaps take it to the 300 yard range ...

The more I see those Caldwell Stingers the more I like them. Might have to take advantage of the Midway USA sale on them right now....

I really like it thus far and serves my intended purpose.

Nice win! Literally can't beat 20 bucks. Post pics of your 300 yard targets!

Will do, as soon as I get another range opportunity.

Feenix you would have say that is a lot of bang for your bucks.

Aye Sir! I have grown to like this entry level rifle and the chambering.

Thank you all. Cheers!
