Range report on my new 30-30
« on: December 04, 2005, 11:43:12 AM »
I just got back from the range. Right shoulder is still acting up so I shot off hand left handed.  :oops:
The first pic shows 3, 3shot groups at 50 meters while I was getting aclimated to shooting left handed.
The second pic shows 2, 4 shot groups off hand, left handed at 100 meters.  :grin:
All 17 rounds were 150gr Silvertip factory load.
I must admit, this has by far, been the sweetest shooting gun I've owned.

That is some good shooting, especially considering it's on your off side. It's very hard for me to shoot left hand.
Was this using the Winchester Super-X Silvertips, or the Winchester Supreme Nosler Ballistic Silvertips?

I used the Winchester superX silvertips this trip to the range. I hope to have some LEVERevolution to use next time.

The Supremes are excellent ammo, but those Super-X Silvertips aren't to shabby either. They shoot great out my 30-06Comp barrel.
That LEVERevolution ammo seems to be causeing quite a stir right now. Let us know how they shoot for ya.
