Just got back from the range, finaly got the scope mounted . Im useing a simmons atec . This thing is incredable , best shooting gun Ive fired yet . With winchester 130 grain silvertips , it shoots 3/4 groups at 100 yards . Im vary pleased . Recoil is not bad at all , but the guys on the range next to me said it sounds like an attom bomb going off ,It didnt sound loud to me , but thats from behind the gun with muffs on , they had muffs on allso , but I guess the side noise is pretty bad from this round at 3400 fps .
