Well I took a day off and got to spend my morning doing some LR shooting again at 700/800/1000 yards. Brought my Savage 110 My previous best 10-shot group had been well over 6", but today I must have been "in the zone". 5.53" 10-shot group at 1000. Not Guineas material but I'm still happy with the results so I had to share! Load used was a Berger 300gr Match Hybrid OTM, seated to an OAL of 3.792 in Nosler brass hitting a tad over 2700 at the muzzle. Last time I used factory 285gr ELD loads from Hornady, but in the months in between I had developed this Berger load and man did it pay off. My optic was at 24x, (6-24 Viper PST). Probably going to be replacing this soon because I want an MOA scope on this rifle.
I also brought my Ruger 6973 in 6.5 Creed as well and got some "plinking" done with it at 700/800. I wasn't happy with my groups but atleast I was on paper most of the day.
All in all though I am SUPER pleased and today has been a great day!
