Not really, the Triumph does better when I manage to get out on a day wit no wind, it did suprise me a bit because I had a good breeze from the left and that usually gives me problems. Its amazing how much the world of my shooting changed with BH.Lee

They can say what they want about the Z5's but I will always believe that it was the best buy I ever made in a gun dollar for dollar. The Triumph is better but it should be it cost twice as much. That Omega is closing on 1500 shots according to my records still never had a problem with the gun, I am going to stick with steel scope rings after this though it took me two weeks to pin down what was wrong it was shooting all over the target.

I think just relaxed, at least I hope. After those 5/8 of an inch groups with the Triumph when I first tried out BH now that was grinning time. At that it really is not to bad with a 4 power scope[theTriumph has a Swift 2X7] I figered it must be time to post some thing when I figured out I could do it with a scanner my digitak camers got broke on the trip to Europe and has been in the repair shop for 2 months.

nice shooting
what's the striped ring?
do you think you would group that good with a higher volume of powder?
