Default Endeavor range report

Finally got to shoot the endeavor today. I mounted a Burris Fullfiled 2 with ballistic plex, on warne base , with warne QD rings. This is my first set of QD rings, not sure if like them, the little tighteningknobs wobble. Anyways shot it at 50 yds and got it zerod in and shot a few groups at a 100yds. I ONLY got 25 shots before the STOCK came loose, and no one had a big enough allen wrench to tighten it........[:@] other than that i was happy with the results for the first time out.

all shots were 120g BH209 250sst with hph12 cci209m

WOW!! that is some pretty impressive shooting for first time out. I really like the Warne Rings.. I am not sure what the wobble is in them though, that you speak of. Mine normallyset up solid as a rock. On the twist levers there is a little play but nothing to concern yourself with. Check that screw in the front. Is it sticking out way past the rings when tight?

That load you're shooting has some gas to it. There should be nothing you could not hunt with that load you're shooting. And with that kind of accuracy for first time out, that says a lot for the rifle, the scope and your ability.. Nice shooting.

That is a good looking gun ans some good shooting. I have an Endeavor barrel on the way for my Por-hunter frame. I hope it shoots that good. It should be here some time this week. I think I am going to start with 110 - 120gr. of BH209 with a 250 gr shockwave and a harvester short black sabot. Hope it shoots as good as yours does. I'll probably also try some 200 gr shockwaves.

The screws themselves don't wobble. I think what you are seeing is just a bit of slack in the fit of the lever on the screw head. Be pretty tough to reposition them without that slack.
