Going to be an educational winter
"...Some days its rocket science, and some days it just zinc..."
It was just above freezing today but clear with no wind and the snow we got over the weekend was starting to thaw back up into the higher elevations so I spent a little time getting the first few shots down range with the 65x57. 30 jacketed and 40 cast just to warm it over a bit and was more than a little pleased with the way it shot. Ony at 25 yds as I had no idea if the tall front blade was going to be anywhere near correct with the aperture sight as I expected I would have to dress it down some but it was about an inch high and about an 1 1/2 right so a little windage adjustment and it should be close for to right for a 150 yd hunting zero but will get to that later on. For now I am really pleased with how it went as it bodes well for the testing sessions that wil come next.
