On target…

After a surprise invitation to go to elk and deer camp next week, I decided to get my hunting rifle sighted in. I hand-loaded a dozen rounds and was very pleased with the result.

This three-shot group was shot from 100 yards in light wind with a .308 Savage rifle, topped with a 4-9x scope.  For the technical,  the rounds were Winchester brass, with BR2 primers, 37.1 grains of Varget powder, topped with a Hornady 165 grain bullet.

(And yes, I set the sights exactly 2″ high at 100 yards to give me a good 400 yards range without adjusting for bullet drop.)

It’s a pity my cow calling isn’t as good…
