Same view as yesterday. Using Miss Lori’s little walk behind on the approach to the shop to get to the tractor mounted blower.

Actually been mild. 28 degrees F when I got home.Brrrr. Looks cold.
All pre-OP drama and questions have cleared, I am GTG for a new left knee Monday. Figured I better get out shooting one last time, might be 30-45 days before it will happen again.
Son in law A.C. has a DPMS Panther .308 he purchased from his brother in law several years ago (somebody needed money). He's never really shot it much probably due to a remarkably poor scope set up. I got a hold of it, set a 12x Leo in proper height rings, and set it in a corner. View attachment 7542388
Today was the day to shoot. I'd put together a moderate Varget/175 SMK load, sighted at 50 then lobbed 13 rds at 100. Results...
View attachment 7542389 Knee jerk conclusions:
Somebody who is familiar with the platform and in better shooting shape could knock a inch off this. Do some load work, maybe another 1/2-1". If it was mine, I'd dump it. It only took 20 rds for me to decide this system is not my cup of tea. I'll let A. C. decide what to do with it. Around these parts shooting sticks like this are going for a pretty penny.
New knee photos upcoming later this week.
I had read from several sources the .308 AR 10 platform was a different animal to shoot compared to a bolt. My meager 20 rd. (and preconceived bias) experience proved it's not a good fit for me. A. C. will decide which way to go with it and I'll support him either way. Even a difficult shooter is better than no shooter.My 16" shoots like that with BL-C2 and 168 Nosler CCs.
I hate the damn thing.
Going for $1200-1400 locally.
Time to dump it.
Amen to Lagavulin.I like your affordable primers, not your blended scotch.I'm a single malt guy. Lagavulin is God's tears.
Please let me know what direction the camera is facing. Sincere question, really. Thanks in advance.
