Finally had a beautiful day in Mid/Western Nebraska...so, a trip to the range was in order.

32 grain Hornady Vmax at 300 yards. Squares are 1". Credit me for the one on the right!

Looks like the 4 shots grouped work out to about a .23, that's some fine shooting!

What's the load specifics?

RE15 - close to the top of the recommended load.

I use a Stoney Point tool for ogive OAL, but it is 0.100 off the lands (where this rifle seems to like it??!!).

CCI450 primer in Win & Rem cases.

I was VERY happy with the group, because you don't know how the groups are until I walked to the target.

40 grain VMax's with H4895 were close to the same group - again, one flyer.

Of note, I only have a $100 BSA scope on this rifle (what I can afford). At 300 yards, there is a HUGE difference in shooting capability, even off the bench.

Have two Leupold's (fixed 10x40 and fixed 16x50) and two Burris (6-18x40) inbound.

Nice shootin' bud especially at 300 yds. I have trouble seeing that far let alone shoot a group like that. We don't have a 300 yd range locally just a 200 yd berm. When the wind, rain and snow finally settle down in these parts, I am going to try some 200 yd groups.
Keep us posted.

That's some great shooting buddy! I just learned today of a 300 yard range not far from me. It's $7 a day but I hear it's well worth it. I can't wait to shoot mine off a bench from that range.

It is interesting about the ranges across the nation.

My annual range dues are $30. That is it.

We have a dedicated 22 space (10 benches with metal targets), pistol (8 benches with metal targets), 8 rifle benches (100, 200, 300 yard rail/berms), and two throwers for clay pigeons.

LUCKY!

That's some really good shooting acloco,nice going. We really got a nice range about 20 miles from where i live. It has a 300yd. rifle range A spot for the people that shoot clay pigeons and pistols and a spot for people to walke through the woods to shoot bows too. And it's run on what the people donate to use it. So were pretty luck here i think.

That's 4 pdods gone to rat heaven and 1 more that you'll get with your 6th shot.

I haven't tried any 32gr bullets in my gun yet but when I see groups like that, I know it won't be long!
