[QUOTE="hunterjmj, post: 1174467, member: 94740"] Leveled and set my scope yesterday, actually did it twice. After I was satisfied with where the scope was set I noticed the front of the rail was about a 1/16" from the bell of the scope so I took it apart and trimmed the rail back a 1/4". I think I got it a bit more plum the second time anyhow. Did a quick bore sight in the garage and headed to the range. First shot was 5" low and 6" to the left. A few clicks of the scope and 2 bullets last I was hitting dead nuts. I roughly followed a barrel break in cleaning and played with the turrets out to 400 the brought it back to a 100 and ran out of bullets. Didn't really work on groups today, just enjoyed shooting and playing with the scope. Loving the new rifle and scope. Going to start working on my shooting and what this rifle can do. Do you guys have a routine when you hit the range? Work on grouping at a certain range then work up or focus at one distance/trip? [/QUOTE]
