Shot a Group Today
« on: February 25, 2006, 10:17:44 PM »
I finally got some time to shoot the Survivor in .308 today. It was a great day. Here's a pic of the group. 3 shots at 200 yards. Totally stock Survivor shooting Winchester SuperX 150's. My scope is a Bushnell Trophy 3-9x40. I'm loving this rifle!!!

Wow! I guess that says two things, Good Shooter, Good Rifle! I have had good results with my .223 ultra at 100 yards, can't wait to get 200 yard shot. Also have a .223 fluted Ultra Varmet sb2 f23 and a 243 ultra I havent shot yet. Too much work! I'll post when I get out to shoot them. Nice shooting, Good rifle!

I'll echo that's some nice shooting there  :agree:
It's great to find a cheap brand of ammo that shoots well in you rifle. Check out the Super-X Silver Tips too, they don't cost maybe $1 or $2 more, and shoot real well in my -06.

I normally shoot pistols in USPSA but going to a rifle has been quite a change for me. A friend just got his trigger done by one of the local smith's for 80 bucks so I think I'm next in line for that. I'm also looking at another scope with better zoom on it and then I'll try a 300 yard group. I really have to work on the breathing and the trigger control. Thanks for the words,

Before you go lay down $80 for a trigger job, look at the FAQs. There are a couple great walk throughs that tell you how to it yourself. It's simple to do and very very easy to take off too much. The only thing I caution you about with this is getting the spring in the right place..it's simple, but for some reason took my awhile to figure out :oops:
If you send back your receiver to get fitted for another barrel you can request a trigger job, and they will do it for free.
Just something to consider.

Welcome Aboard :D

That's a real nice 200 yard group...Good shooting :agree: If you want to try some factory match ammo ..try some of the Federal Gold Match 165 grainers..they shoot well out of mine..along with the Winchesters..

WOW! I thought my 308 survivor was shooting good out of the box. These 308 barrels must be among the best NEF has. Mine was getting 3/4inch AT 100 yards off the tailgate of my truck. I know I could do better with a nice rest. But that is some very fine shooting for a $200 dollar rifle.
