Encore 25-06
« on: April 04, 2005, 01:28:16 PM »
Well, I got me a barrel last week, but the only scope I could find at Bass Pro was a Simmons 4x32.  Itching to shoot so I bought it.  Today, mounted it, bore site and then off to the range.  Shooting handloads I had made yesterday, and some I had for my rifle.  

Got there, and at 50 yards the bullet was in the bullseye (bore site).  Needless to say that after a few fine tunes, I was able to get about 1.24" at 50 yards.  Now I know this is not the best, but I was just trying to get use to the gun and such.  I was very impressed, and now I'm on the web looking for  another scope, 2x7x32 or something close, and I'm about to load up some more ammo.  

I'M HOOKED!  Can't wait to get back out there next week.  Even thought of going to deer lease and trying to find a porker or two.....

Bob :shock:

You might try Sportsman's Warehouse in Lewisville off I-35 and Hebron Parkway (north east).

Good cal Curtis.....Never knew that place was there, and got hooked.  Found a Burris 2x7 and looks like it will work perfectly......

LOL......Ya, I know.  It cost me $175 to get out of there the first time I went and $250 this time.  That was just sundries, I don't know what I'd do if I was serious.  I'm glad I found it, I think!  Talk about a kid in a candy store!
