It was just for shooting...
But a whole lot of fun!
(Trying to make a Rhyme! )
Anyway, this is my pre-ban Super Match that I have been working on for a while. I was not happy with the first bedding job by using the "fulcrum" method, so I switched and I am stoked with the results!
The targets were shot with M118LR ammo. The first target was shot with a cold barrel. But already I could see an improvement over the last time I shot the rifle. The two shot flyers is my fault. I shot three looked throught the spotting scope then shot two more... the shots on the upper left were the last two shots.
The second target is three shots. I was so stoked with the first three shots and the group that I chickened out and did not shoot two more to make a "man" sized group!
As soon as I was satisfied that this rifle could shoot, I took the scope, bipod and cheekrest off! Open sights I was hitting steel plates out to 430 yds. with confidence. It helped that the wind was very still on Sunday!
Overall I am very happy with the way this rifle turned out!
Thanks for letting me share some of these pics! I was waiting to get a chance to post these pics!

Very cool Tom, we should start calling you dead-eye!
Aloha Everyone!
Thanks for the kind words! And it is very much appreciated!
Spikenfritz: I used a Tasco SS 10X scope for accuracy proofing... the Tasco performed really well.
As for the moniker on the buttstock...
It says "NRA - Armed with Pride!"
