Steyr Scout 308 @ the range.....

[caramel]

I was looking forward to try my half scout set up, opened up a case of Accubond 165 gr ( top ammo for a top rifle )... Did zero the 6500 1.25X8X32 with 6 rounds, those were the first shots of the rifle, i took my time and only shot @ 100 yards, pretty happy with the set up and this will be the ammo il'l be using for hunting....
Satisfactory results show me that i wont reload for this one, here are pics of the 2 best 5 shots group, remember the black dot is .7 ( target printed for my group in a dime ), those groups are -MOA but i could callet it a MOA rifle with commercial ammo... JP

The wind was playing with me but that is a good call... JP.

Ugh, so jealous.

Kind of weird shooting on 8X with 6 inch eye relief, but quite pleasant and accuracy wise, it doesnt seem to disturb nothing, au contraire i'd say i do for faster target aquisition, quite proud of my half scout set up, i think i just invented that, should be called the caramel set up... JP.

This kamlooky is a gift from my beautifull wife, she ordered it in my back from Epps ( my older son gave her a hand, but i am not supposed to know that ), this look like a plain jane but it is a hell of a 308 rifle, less than a metre in lenght, less than 3 kg and being a Steyr Mannlicher, should i say more... JP.

Next time out, will be even better, just lowered my trigger to 25 ounces, it cant go lower... JP.

Very nice rifle, good to hear the 1/2 Scout set up "oh pardon me" the Caramel set up is working so well,,,

Good choice and great shooting.

Awesome shooting, that's a bad ass rifle! I held one at the shooting edge a few months ago and it felt like something out of star wars or star trek. If only I had the coin...
How do your bipod legs deploy/retract? The one I handled felt like they were going to break off every time I tried to fold them back in, and the sales man said that was normal
