😀 I’m so excited. 🙂
Now I have to save up and get a 300 win mag barrel for it. That’s going to be expensive, over 2000. Anybody got any money laying around? 😛
But yeah. Gets in monday. I’ll probably pick it up tuesday. Yay!
First high grade rifle. This thing is supposed to be a tack driver. He sent me pictures of 1″ groups at 300 yards with it. This will be my gun for competition for now on. I want it now! 🙂

Yep, factory loads.
Althought I really can’t see handloads being that much more accurate. I mean, that’s about as tight as a group as you can get.

Damn good shooting +2 . . and I thought you bought a tactical rifle (vs. a benchrest gun) . Man, that’s 6PPC territory. 😯 Lama, you’re gonna kick a lot of those PPC shooters’ butt with that rifle of yours. Was that group shot with handloads or factory loads btw?
Yeah, definately.
With open sights on the bench it still isn’t hard to keep groups under 1″. With a sling prone I’ve been able to do 1.5″, best ever. Only done it in practices though.
damn good shootin. I do presume that was with the scope of course, not the open sights.
Yeah. The 1″ circles are a little big to aim at. What I like to do is just shoot somewhere in it, and then aim for the bullet hole. 🙂
Drive down here with some ammo and I’ll let you play with it. 😀
Lama, only problem I see here is that the group isn’t in the center of the bull. 😛
Oh, and also that I don’t get to shoot it. 🙁
🙂
Why thank you! 😀
Damn Lama, that’s one bad ass rig. 8)
That’s because it’s a crappy picture. 😛
It is a very small group. And to beat it all, this is with factory ammo. 🙂 It loves black hills 68g match ammo. The group is wider than it is tall, might be my fault. The gun shoots slightly more accurately than a laser. 😛
Maybe when I start reloading I’ll be able to squeeze that group down to .01″. 🙂
I don’t see where more than 2 bullets went through that there little hole. 😛 Good shooting with a very capable rifle!
More pics. 😀
With a scope.
Here it is with the metallic sights.
Looking down the metallic sights
And a 5 shot group at 100 yards. The circle is a 1″ shoot and see target. Don’t know exact group size, but a .25 pellet won’t fit through, so it’s smaller than .25″ outside to ouside, when you subtract .223 from that, you get a ctc group of between .02 and .03″ 🙂 🙂
LOVE IT!
Pretty similar.
I think a headshot with this toy wouldn’t be a problem out to 100 yards. It’ll shoot the same hole all day at that range. 😀
I could get a 6mm barrel. Guy was telling me earlier his shot .45″ groups at 300 yards. 😛 That’s an accurate gun. 😀
300 win mag should do the trick though. Pinpoint accurate cannon, can’t beat that.
usualy the heaviest round 80gr? not sure. also v-shock works well.
if within 100 metres headshots all round :D.
but a good vital shot you cant beat.
if your whitetail/muleys are like our red deer it shouldnt be a problem.
cheers

Good for you Lama in finding a factory load that your rifle like, which means you can spend more time pressing the trigger instead of the reloading press.
