Shot my Savage BTVLSS today

[justinp61]

I set the bench and target (100 yards) up today to try some test loads for my 260, so while everything was set up I figured I may as well shoot my BTVLSS some too. The rifle hasn't been shot hardly at all in over two years and the only shooting I've done has been a handful of test loads today and last fall for the 260.

The rifle has a Konus Pro (I don't like) 6.5-24 or 5 X 44 mil dot scope on it and the best I recall was zeroed at 50 yards with CCI SV. IIRC 10X is where the mil dots are calibrated to so I set it there and and fired a couple shots using the third mil dot, high and right After making some windage adjustments and increasing the magnification and a few more rounds and it was in good shape.

The scope was set at almost 12X and held the mil dot on the black square. The wind was from my 7 o clock at 3-4 mph.

Now that I can appreciate and respect . I use to shoot 1000 yds ,and still like the challenge but not up to driving 3 hrs each way to shoot 600 yds . I started shooting 22lr at 200-300 yds and love the time of flight ,,drop wind ,all reminds me of my younger days at 1000 . With a lot less expense .
Excellent group .
