Back to the range today to confirm zero’s are set on the No. 4 T for the upcoming Vintage Sniper Match at Telladega in two weeks.
I was able to shrink the groups a bit further by concentrating on a firm hold. The scope elevation setting is bang on at indicated range with this 40.3 grain Varget load with 174 SMK. Makes it easy to just dial in “3” for 300 and “6” for 600 yds. Hard to screw up.
300 yards shot prone with front bag support. First shot from cold bore in 9 ring at 2 O’Clock, so added one click left and reset the windage turret to “0” after this shoot (there was no wind). The X ring is 3 inches in diameter at 300 yards, so 1 MOA. I’m using a 6 O’Clock hold on the black aiming mark.
