Re: Picked up a Calfee Sporter
Just out of curiosity is the offset rail and the fact that the scope is mounted so high for Benchrest shooting ? I am guessing you set the rifle up in the bags and try to touch nothing but the trigger ?

Yes it is Michael so your cheek doesn't rest on the stock It's new to me but a lot of fun and highly competitive. It shoots well of hand as it is light but depending where you hold it your impact will change

Re: Picked up a Calfee Sporter
I saw Calfee and had to check it out!!
You my friend have a helluva rifle there. Bill Calfee can get a 3" barrel stub to shoot better than most Anschutz's!!!
I'm not a big BR fan, but have huge respect for the 'smiths and Bill's one of the alltime best! Does the ULA action have the firing pin strike at 6:00??

Re: Picked up a Calfee Sporter
How far were you shooting and how many rounds per group? They look like one hole groups.
