This is my very first post here. After 15 years of shooting most kinds of hunting rifles I was of the impression that I was not capable of precision shooting. But today I lucked into a good deal on a real precision rifle and found out that it was my equipment that had been holding me back so long and not my skill. Now I think I'm ready to start learning from you guys how to reach out there to the really long distances and push the envelope. I HAVE TO BRAGG; I got everything you see here, except the scope, for $850. AND I got to shoot it before I bought it.
The case seems unassuming enough. Low profile for transportation.
But then you open it up and see a whole weapon system ready to go.
She looks good from all angles.
And she shoots great too.
The rifle is a .308 Remington PSS and came with the Storm Case, Leupold Mark 4 rings, Leupold 10MOA decline base, large bolt knob and, 2 lbs. trigger.
That group was my final 5 shot group of the day, shot with 168gr Hornady TAP ammo.
Not bad for shooting factory ammo. My next step is to develop a hand load for it starting with the Hornady 168gr A-max as my starting point. I have a whole stock pile of .308 brass from old rifle's I have owned so it won't be long before i am getting all I can out of this rifle. BUT it is very comforting to know I can get this kind of accuracy from commonly available factory ammo.
I really look foreword to learning a lot from you guys about long range shooting and can't wait for a chance to get this rifle back home where I can stretch her legs.
