[QUOTE="mat072486, post: 997169, member: 84302"] Range report #1. 58* 4530 ele. First shots through the gun. Load: 100 grains by [B]weight[/B] BH209, 143 grains volume. each charged was weighed individually. Rem lr Mag primers. 250 grain barnes in the green sabots. First shot to zero. 8 plus inches low at 30 yards. looking at my peep sight Think to myself there is no way i have enough elevation left to get a 200 yard zero. max out elevation on the peep and move the target to 100 yards. *swabbing regimen: one patch of no9 solvent and two dry patches between shots. First shot at 100. cant see it anywhere on paper. walk up and see i am 9 inches low at 100 with my peep maxed out on elevation. nothing I can do about it now so lets see what she will do. Fired two more shots and checked for group. First 3 round group was 1.273 inches center to center with factory peep sights. after my 3rd shot i didn't clean and fired 2 more without cleaning. The third shot is a dirty mother to get seated. The two fouled shots were in the 3-4 inch range. Really disappointing about the problem with the peep. HOWEVER, it was very clear I was not going to be able to shoot 300 with it anyway. The front sight would cover most of a deer at 300 yards. [/QUOTE]
