Default RE: Questions about properly sighting my rifles

ABSOLUTELY GREAT ANSWERS..thanks alot for the suggestions. I do have to get a sand bag to rest the butt stock on.. i also was letting the barrel rest on the wood stand and not the stock. This will help i am sure. Again, thanks for all the great answers i really appreciate it. I look forward to getting better groups.. I am using scopes on both my rifles (albeit cheap Simmons scopes) Plus i was getting a little fatigued and frustrated so i am sure that didn't do me any wonders. I don't think that i flinch in fact i love the kick of a heavier caliber like the 06. A rifle should kick a bit so you know it's not a toy.

my guns are a 30.06 Model 70 and a Savage model 10gxp in 7mm-08. Both brand new.. i am shooting Rem corelokts in 150 gr thru the 30,06 and Winchester XP2's in the 7mm (140 gr)..
