Default Triumph got here

My Triumph finally came, took it out and shot it, scope not here yet so I put one of my old junkers on it[a very old Bushnell 1.5x4 x32].
Too a few burrs out of the barrel cleaned it good took it out to shoot.
The feel is good and the trigger is superb,the comb is just right for a scope but to high to shoot irons comfortable; I really liked it before I shot it, but after I shot it I new it was a permanent fixture it hold as steady as a rock the recoil is good for that light a rifle. This what I ended up with after bore sighting[gone try posting a pic]. The red target at 50 the other two at 100yds the sloppy one was due to sight adj.Lee

Very sweet right out of the box. What bullet what load? I think you definitely got a keeper, some kinda accuracy right outa the box.It is nice to know your starting with a gun capable of shooting like that onyour firstrange session. WOW.

NCHAWKEYE, here a try not much on posting pic yet. Its the bottom one.
I did not know you would not be able to read the load off the target when I posted. It was 100gr RS and 250gr SW I shot some other bullets all except the 180 gr. Gold Dot shot about the same that one it did not like.

Nice looking collection, you got at least one "shooter there". How many others are shooters? Chap Gleason

Sure looks like a "keeper" from that group!
I'd keep it and sell the third one down in the pic. Be a shame to scratch up that piece of wood.
