My first bolt action

[Gryphon]

Damn OP, makes my first bolt gun (a Black Friday purchase, pick up tomorrow) look pretty impotent! Nothing like going all in I suppose, but I just have my toe in the water for now.

How bout tree fiddy?

Dang, looks like he wants a little more than that.

Good golly, my jaw dropped when I saw this one. Drool.

Finally my new folding stock, bipod, scope & rings arrived. Looking forward to this week at the range...

Good lord. That is the definition of go big or go home.

So in the right side I see 5-5 shot groups with one flyer in the middle but the left target with 2 flyers? Demand your money back ASAP. Just kiddin good shootin.

The groups will tighten up if the targets are right side up.
Must have missed you, I was there all by myself around 3:00pm.

Just kidding about the groups, nice shooting.

Left around 1:30... It was a perfect day.

Way to go from 0 to 60 in a heartbeat. Damn, man.

Yeah, I was expecting some entry level bolt. The picture opens up and I am going "damn, I want one". Sadly, I have my sights set on the Sako TRG10 as my next bolt gun. No idea how I am going to explain that to my wife though.

OP, what is it and what cartridge did you get it in? Think the only way to top the wow factor at this point is to tell me your first bolt gun is .50 BMG.

Masterpiece Arms. It says it right on the stock and the barrel.

Looks like it comes in .338 Lapua too. Decisions, decisions.

Op, I read the specs on the rifle. It is going to be pretty hard for you to go above and beyond your first bolt rifle. This is the epitome of buy once, cry once. Might be easier to sell my wife on this rifle over the Sako. Plus, who really wants interchangeable barrels on a long range rifle, right?

Really nice shooting by you at 200 yards.

Thank you sir, Sako is an impressive rifle, but at my skill level and limited long range availability I could not justify the added cost. The MPA is a great rifle and I seriously doubt Sako would make me shoot better.
