Stock Weaver Kaspa 3-9x40 scope. 100 yards from the bench with front rest and a rear bean bag. The small squares are 1/4".



Out this morning for a little shoot. Mostly 22lr to work on my form and about 10 rounds out of the Savage 10TR to check bullet seating depths and I realized I had a 50 rounds of 308 loaded up to work out for deer season and my Savage 16 in 308. Things got progressively better from 42.0 grains up to 43 but when I hit 43.5...best 10 shot group from a 308 for me to date. I can honestly say I pulled the bottom left one. I knew when I squeezed the trigger. The scope was bore sighted and only required 7 clicks to the right for zero. Still a damn good day and I think I will go buy a lottery ticket...
