[QUOTE="41mag, post: 89435, member: 3804"] WEll we did a little gong banging over the week I was in the country. We had this flange hung out at 500 yds. and tested a couple of our standard hunting rigs out on it. Bear in mind that out of them all only one has had any custom work done and only one had a mil dot scope. The other two only had standard duplex reticles. I did the shooting on all of them and I must say that the 25/06 which was the only custom of the bunch, shot pretty well, especially using factory ammo. The other two were both Remington .270's. One a standard bdl which had the mil-dot scope on it and the other this years model something in SS and a black laminate stock. Sorry about the details but it's my buds rifle and just didn't get the details on it. [img]http://image64.webshots.com/164/8/11/61/512981161VaVvUs_ph.jpg[/img] The two shots in yellow are from my buds .270 (Hornady light mag 130gr Interbonds) , the ones in red are from the 25/06 ( Hornady 117gr SST), and the ones in blue are from the first shots with my .270 (58grs RL-22, 130gr SST). I think I could have done better had I shot the .270's again, but time was getting short and hogs were out there begging to be shot. LOL this was done with about a 15 - 20mph wind coming from about 4 o'clock, to the target. Once I had the hold you can see that things got beter as I went along. The last shots with the 25 the wind had also died down some. I also shot my .270 from off of Polecat shootingh sticks verses the bench like the other two. Trying to duplicate field conditions. I do have a question for those of you who shoot a lot at iron, I noticed that the impacts from my bullets looked oblong compared to the rest of the impacts. Does this happen on certian bullets, or is is caused by a condition or is this something that is seen regularily? There are some more pics of the gong at the link below under Hunting and Shooting 05 - pg 2. Also a few pics of the hog one of my other friends got up there with us this weekend.
