200 yard stevens 25-06 group

[machinistbutler]

shot this today,gun is shooting better and better.Two fellow gunnutz from the military were at the range as well with some sweet shotguns.

 

[NAA]

Dang, no wonder these rifles are sold out all over the place. Nice shootin'

 

[Silverado]

Wow, that's a 200 yard group!! Great shooting!

 

[1899]

That is an excellent group. Those Stevens are more and more tempting every day!

 

[savagefan]

Yeah and it's Savage's cheapy line, go figure.

 

[K98]

Pretty good but let's see a 5 shot group.

 

[machinistbutler]

I have an 8 shot 100 yard group that went into about 1 inch today when I was chronying some loads,not quite as tight as this three shot group but will post in a bit.The military guys at the range had three nice shotguns,one mossberg had a 14 inch barrel that apparently is not restricted.Those guys must have shot 150 rounds through them in about half an hour.Nice guns.I let them shoot my garand a bit.Nice people.Part of the fun of goint to the range is the nice people you meet.Spruce grove range has some very nice members.

 

[machinistbutler]

Here is a small 7 or 8 shot group while chronying today,wasnt really shooting for accuracy but got some anyways

 

[LeePeterson]

Are the groups not supposed to be in the 10?

 

[machinistbutler]

here is a group with my a-bolt in 30-06.Chronying this too but turned out not too bad.165 gr interlock over 56.5 gr 4350,rem brass.

 

[machinistbutler]

Last two groups were at 100 yards.After I shot a couple 200 yard groups I went home.Didn't want to screw up a good day!!On a bit of a side not the leupold 4-12 showed the red dots quite clear at 200 yards.I have an old bushnell trophy 3-9 on my 30-06 and there was a big difference in clarity at that range.Atleast through my eyes.

 

[Boer seun]

Yeah and it's Savage's cheapy line, go figure

GET ONE THEY ARE AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[pilot24]

This is the second group I shot with my stevens 243 with commercial ammo , can't wait to try some reloads!!!

 

[LeePeterson]

That was myself and a young PPCLI guy out there. Spruce Grove does have a nice range and yes it was shotgun day for me. I was there when he(machinistbutler) shoot those groups, good cross wind was blowing at the time. I still prefer the Garand The shot gun he was talking about was my mossberg 14inch i got off a fellow gun nut excellent shotgun I even bought the 20 inch big brother. ope to see you out there again and maybe we can try some pistol stuff next time
