I wish I had a digital camera, as the warne QDs that luv2safari sent are excellent, and surprisingly, that old weaver has a boat-load of eye-relief!!! I actually could move the scope back another half-inch in the mounts and still be "ok" on the mount... but with my tendency to creep anyway, I figured it best to leave it out there.

I haven't gotten it to the range yet, as I don't have the reloading stuff or $50 laying around for ammo at the moment. I'll find out tomorrow if I'll have the money to go shoot it this weekend! (100% commission can suck sometimes).

I'm just going to zero it with 300gr Partitions for now, although I'd like to eventually work up a "north american" load with the 260gr nosler solid-base Ballistic tip. figured that would be good medicine on black bears and elk, and set the scope for those... (~7" corridor out to 300yds)

then yank the QDs and get the irons set for a nice 350gr controlled-expansion piece...

I'll get you some group measurements both bench and off-hand ASAP.

Edit: my typing SUCKS as of late....
