Finally, Finally I have it ready to shoot

The barreled action looks familiar ! Looks awesome let us know how it shoots!

Yep its yours, hard to believe I have not shot it yet. I got a little side tracked with some political stuff, school, and making holsters for some friends. I have the pressure test loaded up, just have not made the time to get to the range.

Very pleased with the results from today. 317m group from the bipod, no rear bag. These are shots 4,5,and 6 since I have owned the rifle. Considering I have 20x available and after I shot the group I realized the scope was set to 6.5x I'm at 6 rounds total since I have owned the rifle very happy.

Awesome shooting, it's a tackdriver. Was that 317 meters, probably a 3/4" group right, that's tight.

Not sure on the size not tape, thus I inserted my finger for a size reference. Yes meters I have made it my personal mission to change the US to the metric system.

317m is a chip-shot for that rifle. Stretch it out!

I wish brother, no where to shoot at all around these parts. Right now I'm lucky I have that.
