I'll say it again, I'm not the best shot in the world. If it can be done wrong...I'll do it wrong. I flinch, anticipate recoil, everything, lol.
See the pictures. It was a perfect mid-morning at the range this morning, October 27th. It was a great day to be out there. I was the only one on the rifle range the whole time I was there. Recoil while wearing a thin t-shirt has been solved by me using a Limbsaver recoil pad that I had leftover from my trap shooting days that I had on a O/U shotgun that has since been sold. I didn't adjust the scope, as it was sighted in for brass cased ammo, I just aimed for the bullseye. Had I adjusted the scope you can see that the center would have really be shot up. My conclusion is that with a shooter who doesn't have bad habits like I do, and a better rifle rest than I do there would not be much difference at all between good brass cased ammo and the steel cased Russian ammo. I plan to really practice shooting this thing and try to get better with trigger control and breathing control. I have written notes on the target to make it clearer what I was doing. It was a great morning at the range. Loving this rifle. It can definitely out shoot me. The Russian ammo does seem to shoot more to the left compared to the brass cased ammo from the last test. I will probably adjust the scope next time because I'm not going to shoot that good brass cased ammo much at all. I just want to know where it is hitting.
