well i leave tomorrow for my next build so i took today and got together with a good friend (grilfriend's brother) that just got back for his second trip to Iraq (82nd aborn) and of corse i got to see my girlfriend :grin: . well after they left it was time for some range time!!!! i was trying out my new winchester brass and i must say i like it!! my worst slow fire group was about .4 CTC BUT my best was .393 outside to outside thats a CTC group of .189!!!!! :o  :o (yeah fred those 204's just can't hit anything can they J/K) its too bad that was  a 3 shot group . i'm going to shoot my match cards next week but i think i'm going to save my 204 for a while the 4th or 5th shot is always a flier about .4 or .5 high  :(  .
curiosity killed the cat , but i was lead suspect for a while

Mitchell.
I am very happy you got such a good shooting rifle. Take care of it, to make it last. Good luck on your new job.

That is incredible accuracy from such a rifle. Enter it into a benchrest match and show the big guys that you don't need a $2000.00 rifle to shoot good.
