I'm not too concerned about trying chase groups with the Ross as much as manufacturing functioning plinking ammo.
My shooting bench is in an advanced state of disrepair and wobbles far to much to allow any real accuracy work.
I do however, have a good collection of steel targets at all ranges and just enjoy shooting offhand at 50-250m for cast. Mixed brass will be more than fine. I bought this rifle specifically for such shooting. It points exceptionally well, the trigger is excellent, and the action is slick and easy to work, it's a true pleasure to handle. Especially now that it's actually shooting.
This rifle is far too much fun to shoot really fast, you can work the action very quick.
The express sights consist of a relatively tiny bead and notch, while I shot pretty well with them they're definitely not my preference. When I was shooting it was in the glare of a cloudless sky on white snow so my eyes did OK.
Reading through this thread again I see a few comments about 14gr. of Red Dot being too heavy of a charge for the weight of boolit. This is likely true, that was the maximum of what I deemed appropriate to establish if simply increasing pressure would change the internal ballistics enough the brass would extract easily. uscra112's quickload data is appreciated, I had no plan to load any hotter than that nor load more.
