Did some shootin' today
 
Figured I needed some stress relief after a busy work week. So, I hit the Sheriff's range for some 100yd shooting. I took the Rem 700 and some ZQI 7.62 147g FMJ as well as some Fed GMM 168g BTHPs. The current scope riding up top is a Redfield Battlezone 3-9x42 till I get my other scope issue resolved or I get a different one. The Redfield worked great tho.

Here's the rifle and scope waiting to go Hot. Does she look familiar? :D

Here is the best group from the ZQI 7.62 Walmart ammo (most groups were very similar, consistent). Ignore the x'd out holes, they are over lap shots from another target placed on top of this one.

Once I got the barrel warm and fouled up (20 rounds or so), I switched to the Fed GMM 168g BTHP's Here are the results...

That half minute group was shot second or third as I worked my way around the target. I am stoked to see this kind of accuracy! nanner All were five shot groups at 100yds with light to 0 wind in a 90+/- deg, partly cloudy day.

My shoulder felt like mush after 45-50rds so, I called it a day. Definitely need to ad a better butt pad to the stock (I know, I know.....wuss). The rifle performed flawlessly and the bolt was smooth as butta. The clarity at 9x wasn't the best but, doable. Can't wait to put better glass on this bad boy. I will be using the Redfield for my AR Precision build.

Thanks for looking. All comments welcomed as usual.

No, just wanted something more "tactical ". :D With easier adjustments.

I think I'll put the leupold on something else.
