Took a 4-5 year hiatus from rifle shooting. Decided to break the 700PSS .308 out of the safe few weeks ago and have a go at it. Bought it years ago and mounted a "junk" nikon scope on it. Worked well and used to shoot it out to about 550 yards at a buddies farm, shooting milk jugs, but it was never consistent at that range. Always had to walk it in with a few shots.
Fast forward to a few weeks ago...went to Hap Baker. Shot about 20 rounds. Felt good and held 6 shots @100 yards into a pretty decent group. Around 1". That was with hunting ammo because thats all I could find local at the last minute. So I ordered a 1/2 case of FGMM, a Millett TRS scope with 20moa weaver base and Burris xtreme rings.
Took it out the other day and sighted in the new setup. Ended up with this nice little group. Was about 80' and sunny. 3 shots @100 yards. 168gr FGMM. measures .220 center-center. Needless to say I'm back in the game and caught the shooting bug again
