[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2020939, member: 109862"] Yeah I figured. This particular rifle isn’t for especially long range, it’s an old savage 99 and a dear family heirloom...and that innacurate lever action with its inferior rear locking bolt and its non free floating barrel in that accuracy killing 2 piece stock with that pencil thin barrel topped with its dirt cheap weaver 4x scope shooting my lousy mixed headstamp handloads with those awful bent tip cheap Speer bullets keeps the groups right around an honest inch at 100 and consistently pops milk jugs at 400. Haven’t tried further. I absolutely believe concentricity has to be important at truly long range but out as far as 400 it hits consistently. [/QUOTE]
