Finally got 500 S&W to shoot
« on: October 03, 2007, 10:12:37 AM »
It took alot of work, and a sore shoulder, but I'm getting 1 3/4'' groups at 100yards. The permatex bedding made a big difference.The other thing that seemed to help was switching from weaver rings to Burris Zee Rings.You also have to watch the forearm screw. It wants to start loosening after a few shots.

Congrats
A 500 shooting 1 3/4" should kill anything that can be killed.
