[QUOTE="copper still, post: 3062337, member: 125488"] Okay I took the rifle to the range for the first time, here are the results. Factory Hornady ELD-M 140 gr shot at 2660 ft/s instead of the box stated 2710 ft/s through my stock 23.7" stock tikka barrel. I also shot some handloads to get the basics on speed and accuracy and I'm already shoot sub 1/2 moa. [ATTACH type="full" width="284px"]554689[/ATTACH] I then took the rifle to the local gun range and shot prone for my first time ever. This was at 500 yards and the second 5 shot group I took with Hornady Factory Ammo. [ATTACH type="full" width="215px"]554694[/ATTACH] I know nothing about how to correct for wind. As you can see it picked up as I was shooting and I attempted to holdover from shot 2 up. I'm sure there is more accuracy in this rifle than what I've shot in the first 30 rounds. Any rate I feel this will do the job in the ranges I plan on shooting. Again, Everyone thanks for all of your help. [/QUOTE]
