Great beginnings! The 20 Tac is neat. My friend, the Marine PMI has been shooting one for several years. I have seen him dust prairie-dogs at 400+ with it. It looks like you're on your way there, too.~Andrew

 

 

Hi Andrew.

 

well i have been pleasantly surprised with the results as i have only shot 30 rounds so its still got a wee bit more bedding to do etc, so if it continues to get better i will be best pleased,

 

kind regards

Nice groups, Tac 20 is a good round for sure. No recoil either so you see your hits once you get that moddy on.

I hope so A, its a bit jumpy just now with it only being 6.8 lbs scoped,

 

i will be looking forward to seeing the impact on those far of shots come the summer sitting on the edge of those nice fields we shoot over here.

You might find your groups get better just by shooting in normal light.

I have tried the lit target idea and I found it is ok for a quick zero check but not the best for group shooting.

 

Looks promising, now do I need another rifle................ (wife) NO!

Mate of a mate did that many years ago, his other half picked the rifle up and smashed the stock against the wall breaking it.
