Range Report By far my best range day.

[Varmint_Poontang]

I tried my own handloads for the first time today and all I can say is- I think I found my load. I sent my cold bore shot down range and punched a hole much closer to dead center than I expected so I stacked five more on top of it and had a .5" X .46" group sitting on top of my CBS. I just started reloading my own rounds and never expected anything like this.

Nice shooting! You definitely got some varmit for dinner, if that's your thing.

If that's a factory rifle that isn't bad at all. Now keep going! you can do even better, wait till you shoot your first one hole 5 shot group!!

Nice! If the reloading gods are kind you will also have good ES and will have your long range load figured out too.

It is straight out of the box.
