Red and black, Venom lack, red and yellow kill a fellow was racing through my mind as I saw this lol
Bet the gun woulda shot better if you had the bolt on the right side...I went out Sunday morning to confirm that the current batch of reloads for my 30 Nosler was ready for opening day next Sunday. I had to wait about 45 minutes for the fog to clear at 200 and 300 yards. Then, I shot terribly. In panic mode, I packed up and headed home to load up some ammo for my other rifle. Before getting too committed to the 280 AI, I decided to clean the 30 N. When I did, I heard a rattle. It turned out that the scope bases had loosened up after a couple hundred rounds of 230 gr Bergers, with some 199 Hammer Hunters thrown in (next rifle will have an integral rail). I removed and remounted the scope, loaded some more ammo, went back to the range, and sighted it in. The first two shots made one hole at 100 yards (or I missed the whole target with the second shot). They were high, so I had to try to remember how to reset the zero stop. I figured that out, so now I think I am good to go. Well, except for the fires that apparently started this week. . .
BTW - since I got the scope from @The Hedgehog, I am hoping some of hisskillluck came with it. With MY luck, he probably got rid of it because it was an unlucky scope. Maybe I should have bought the Cam Hanes book instead.
