Photos 338 Edge 100yd 5-shot group

[dareposte]

Here's a 5-shot group with one called flinch. I was shooting it without the brake on and its a bit of a beast.

The dark grid squares are 1" grid, with the lighter and thinner lines being 0.200" grid.

This is the first group I shot with the rifle, and was 90.0gr H1000 under 300gr SMK's, chrono'd at 2750 ft/s. Group was the initial rifle sight-in at 100yds to establish the 100yd zero.

The holes on the bottom left target are from sighting in my AR-15 on the same target.

I did have a brake on it, but it wasn't on straight apparently and I was getting a nick from a bullet strike on the last baffle.

Not one to waste a trip to the range, I took the brake off to go ahead and sight it in. Now I need to make a new brake. I got the old one off and measured it, and it turned out the drill-bit had wandered almost 0.025" off course when I was making the brake, so I need a new machining strategy.

Definitely don't recommend using it full power without a brake, I've got a nice sized bruise today on my cheek and shoulder.

LOL there were actually two groups of 3 shots, with adjustments between the groups. Also using the cheap bulk 55gr FMJ bullets. Agreed though, load development is not done yet for that gun.
