Well I finally got her all put together and all the other junk needed for long range shooting and made it out to the range. It was a nice 60 degree day in the middle of the winter out here in Ohio so it was absolutely great to get some time out in the middle of a corn field if you know what I mean. I live in the center of downtown in the concrete jungle, that combined with the weather means I haven't gotten to be outside as much as I would have liked.

Anyways I gotta say this was an absolute blast! There is just something to shooting at longer distances, it's like this feeling of power. I love my rifle, the trigger is PERFECT, the scope is great, what more could a guy ask for. A beer maybe, but they said no alcohol at the range. Can't imagine beer and bullets mix well. I only got to shoot about 30 rounds as I was tinkering with the scope and everything and siting it in, but it was a blast. I spent two hours out there and I was never bored once!

Here are some pics for your viewing pleasure.

 

That is awesome!

 

Sweet gun. I wish I could find a decent outdoor range here. At least I have relatives that live on acreage. Time to clean the shotgun and start some trap shooting.

 

Sounds like a nice way to enjoy the weather. Pics of the targets?

 

nice setup tt; what scope did you use for what distance? Just curious

 

well I used only one scope? Do you mean magnification? I was flipping between 5x and 10x, I'm sure 5x is plenty at that distance tactically but for target shooting I kind of liked the 10x.

The scope is a US optics sn3 t-pal 5-25x with a 58mm reticle(sp?)
