Those are some nice rifles. I really like that Rock. You have it set up nicely. So how do they shoot? Do you have a range report for us?

the rock river will shoot 1 in or under at 100 yards all day, im really impressed with it, its no benchrest but its good enough for me, couple weekends ago i took 2 pheasants at 200 yards both shots through the base of the neck, no meat ruined, i was pretty impressed (and yes it is legal to take upland birds with rifle in iowa) the handi rifle is pretty good to if you get some ammo it likes, its a pretty finiky gun but with correct ammo it shoots about and inch or under at 100, i havnt put it on paper any further than that but it will explode wd 40 cans at 300 when i had my konus scope on it, but just a 3-9x40 nikon on it now so 100 yards is about all it sees anymore, i keep the longer range stuff for the rra.  i will try and get some target pics soon.

thanks

Sounds great! Be sure and post those pictures when you get them. Sure would have been fun to shoot those pheasants. I haven't shot at 'ol ringneck in years.

Adam,

Nice pics! Nice guns!

One question though.....and this just may be the way the picture shows it.....but it looks like the front sight comes up in front of you scope. doesn't that interfere with the scope FOV?

nope doesnt affect anything at all, you dont see it at all either, i asked that question alot before i bought the gun, becuz i knew i wanted to put a scope on it, as long as (dont quote me) but if you scope is above 1 or 3 power it wont affect anything or notice it., some folks get a differend front sight base that either folds down or is under the handgaurd just serving as a gas block, but i like the look of the standard front sight base/gas block. hope this answers ur question. thanks for the thumbs up.
