I saw the stock for sale on SC's. Did Evelio do the work?

[GARD72977]

Yes. The stock was pillerad He did the bedding. Shoots great. Has about 150 rds through it. I got some 1/2 inch 50yd groups off of a couple large sand bags using Agulia rifle match.

I was happy with that. Rest was not ideal and cheap ammo.

Its a different animal. I still cant beat my off hand scores that I get with my Rem 513t

Once you've found some decent ammo, it's time for practice, practice and more practice. Dry-fire and live fire.

[GARD72977]

I have a good variaty of quality match ammo. I need to have a day to test the gun.

The Aguli match at 3.49 per box will be go to offhand practice ammo.

One day you'll be able to spot your own shots.

[GARD72977]

Im very good at calling shots now. Im really strong with apature sights. The scope is a little harder to call.

[GARD72977]

Im struggling with the 2 stage trigger. The light weight of the gun is also causing me problems. I guess i just need more time with it.

[jsizemore]

There ain't no shortcuts. Natural Point of Aim and practice, practice and more practice. RELAX.

And calling the shot is different then seeing the shot.

Im sure I call my shots. Im pretty good with a pistol. IDPA master and just started USPSA at 74.812%. I can tell what I shot with the Rem 513t before I look through the spotting scope.

I have been shooting Airguns for a few years. I have been shooting with the scope set at 20x. Going to a 25x fixed power is harder than I thought. This gun is different in almost every aspect. Im sure with practice I will get better.

My best A-23 target @ 50yd with the 513 is 224. The best I have done with the 1712 is 218 and most coming in around 210. I have a problem with fliers in the 6 or 7 ring. My wobble zone falls apart sometimes.
