And got it to the range. I didn’t have anything to bore sight the scope so I zeroed it at 25 yards using a target I drew up just for this rifle / bullet combination. Then I moved the target back to 100 yards and shot two five shot groups. The first one is the lower one. Three clicks up on the scope then the upper group. It shoots better than I expected. It also ran great. 140 rounds first time out and not a single hiccup.
