So far so good. Took a few shots at my hundred yard 10-in gong too. Seems like it drops about 7 in or so at 100 yards. Fine shootin rifle.

Are you planning on trying 2F?

I would if I could find any. I have about 15lbs 3F at this time though.

The load you're shooting is obviously a very good one and no adjustments to it are needed. You could go to a thicker patch but you'd be hard pressed to better the accuracy of your present load.

Thanks! Yea the shots all felt good. Front and rear bag rest. The picture is actually sideways. Windage is perfect. It shoots a around 1.5 in low. Just got some filling to do an she'll be good. I also shot 80gr and 90gr with similar results. I'll probably file til she shoots dead on at 100 and call it quits!
