Under a half inch!

Yep, that Remington Model 700 I wrote about last week is a keeper.   I had a fun hour on the range earlier this afternoon. The first reloaded ammo I tried in it did the trick…and it broke the half-minute-of-angle barrier with a three-shot group of 0.498 inch!

I’m not wild about the scope, as it doesn’t seem to be able to focus the reticle and the target out at 100 yards simultaneously (or maybe it’s just these old eyes).   A new Weaver or a Leupold is in order…we’ll see.   But the initial results with this resurrected old warhorse are promising.

Later, folks.
