Good day at range
« on: September 18, 2006, 04:24:34 PM »
Got to shoot today.
First my 300rum gave me 2.25'' groups at 300
My 270wsm ruger gave me touching groups at 100 about 1.75'' high and sub 2'' groups at 300. Showed zero at 300
My 25-06 Pro Hunter gave me sub 1/2'' groups at 100 at 1 1/2'' high and 2 5/8 group at 300 with about a 5'' drop.(5'' low at 300)

not bad for one day, DM

PS- the new lead sled investment was worth every dime !!!!!

The problem with "good days at the range" is that you want more and more of them.  You're at work . . . wishing you were at the range.  You're home doing chores . . . yep wishin you were at the range.  Buddy wants to go fishing . . . nope I am goin to the range. 

I wish I was goin to the range   . . . wait a minute, tomorrow after work I AM GOIN TO THE RANGE!

Got to shoot again today. I believe I will officially say that my load development for my 300RUM sendero is complete. After my last range day, I JB"d about 20 more strokes. Was a little wild (about6'') at 300 to start. After about 6 fouling shots, she came in very nice. Last two groups at 300 measured out to 1 1/4 or less. Gun is sighted in zero at 300 and is at + 2.5 at 100. Load is 92gr RL25 and 200 Accubonds.
