No, has nothing to do with the rifle, but the fact the range was reserved for GOP, Gathering Of the Posses cowboy action shooting match all this past weekend, and I couldn't try out my new scope for my CZ 527M!
OK, this is nothing fancy, a cheap Simmons 3-9 that came to less than $50 shipped. Couldn't afford anything nice, but quite frankly, this scope has nothing wrong with it! That single set trigger flat out rocks this lightweight carbine, fantastic action, rifle worked perfectly the whole time.
I did boresight to reccomendations, and this is what I got starting of at 25 yards. BTW, each sight in target represents four total 3 shot sight in targets shot at that distance.
At 25 yards it BETTER be a tight group! Let's adjust and move to 50.
OK, looks good, like I might be able to make this MOA. Now, out to 75.
WAITAMINNIT! The purists are screaming, why 75, why not 100? I ran outa dirt, this is the 80 yard range - the long range was busy today, sorry. :-\
OK, handy dandy measuring tape says 7/8 inch, I can definately live with this....but wait one cotton pickin' minute...what's this?
Now that's a 3 shot group. Measuring tape says 3/8 inch. Best out of 4 groups fired at 75 yards, gives me some REAL good hope for this little carbine. I got some time off coming up...where do you think I will be?
TRYING TO GET A SPOT ON THE LOOOONG RANGE!
