I wasn't going for a group, first shot was cold bore, then adjust, and finally hit the middle. But I didn't miss the steel. lol

Good stuff! I'm despairing of finding a place to stretch beyond the 100-yard mark... Might take a while to make it happen.

Awesome shooting. I was watching a video today of a guy making @ss kicking shots with a .223 at a grand.

How far into NC are you ? I'm in GA and have 500+ if you fancy a road trip.

<span style="font-style: italic">THAT</span> was .223??

I was thinking maybe .243 when I saw the bullet weight, but <span style="font-style: italic">.223</span>?

That's outstanding!
