So as most of you probably know I have been spending most of my time with annewly acquired Remington 700 VS in 308....
Things are going pretty well with it ...lots of 3/8 an d7/16" groups ....when I do my part....
I guess I was spending a little too much time with it and made the 03's a little jealous...
I kept on hearing those little voices saying " ah come on uncle give us a chance we can do it too!"
So I did ...I loaded up 10 rnds ( short quick session) .. 17 grs of 2400 under the NOE 314299 with a .304 nose
sized .311, Ben's Red and BLL for lubing.....off I went....
This is the one of the herd I took..... a Rock Island 03, wearing a Lyman25x LWBR scope....
I settled in and started...looked pretty good ..no first shot flier!...3 more rounds and everything still great!..everyone touching
THEN...the ever present 5th round Hail Mary shot....
OK I deserved THAT1
Things still could be good ...got 5 more... just pay attention...first three touching all right....
then the fourth comes ..not paying attention....
and you know what follows that....
So I guess if I play along this one shoots as good as the new kid...
