It's usually easier to blame the rifle rather than the rifleman. I guess I don't have that luxury this year. This was shot out of my T/C Contender Carbine in 7mmTCU with a stock 21" barrel at 100 yards. The load is 25.5 grs. of IMR-4985 under a Hornady 139 gr. SPBT. This point of impact is 2" high at 100 yds which is where I sight in my hunting guns. I'll have to run a point blank range test on it at some point. This is when I wish I owned a chronograph.  ------------- "We are just an advanced breed of monkeys on a minor planet of a very average star. But we can understand the universe.

Very good 788. It looks like you're ready. When do you get to go hunting? Wing master ------------- I have always considered myself to be quite the bullshitter, But ocasionally it is nice to sit back and listen to a true professional......So, Carry on. |

Wing, My season starts November 1. I have the benefit of access to a defunct tree farm and the surrounding woods owned by my brother so I get to hunt two weeks before the general private lands and state seasons open up. you? 788 ------------- "We are just an advanced breed of monkeys on a minor planet of a very average star.
