    I suspect with all the wear & tear on my rifle I was starting to get inconsistent results & it was impeding my attempt to fine tune my skills. Chasing my tail actually, so... Ive been through my rifle twice over in as many weeks to be sure everything is properly torqued, aligned & fitted etc. Tonight I just wanted to sort functionality & optic tracking on a sled. Zero seemed to go well @ 50yds & my handheld sling supported groups @ 100yd were on target & sub moa with the (new to me) Hornady 55gr.

    Will see how it goes when I confirm zero @ 200 & then shoot 6" round steel @ 300. If that goes well I might be ordering more Hornady. If that then proves to be my rifles preference for factory match ammo then I'll be good to go for further training.

    Fingers crossed.

    Are you going to get into reloading? That's definitely something that can be done at 4 am when you're bored and can't sleep.

    Im honestly trying NOT to get into reloading. I already have a full time hobby. IF I decide to seriously go bigger & long range then yeah I've already assumed it'll be an ancillary deal.

    Ive still got a lot of periphery on my list, a few more firearms & some specialized classes before even entertaining a go in that direction.
