It was 3 degree when i left town. It was 7 degree when the shooting started. It was 23 degree when the powder was gone. Upon returning home the temperature was 9. This was one of them day when it was colder in town than up in the hills.
The rifle had to be sighted in all over again, because the scope was removed, and replaced. Again there was zero blow by. Again the primers fell right out. When the shooting ended, there had been a total of 33 shots through the rifle, after 2 shooting trips. The installation of the primer is becoming more and more routine. Using the pointer finger to push the primer against the bolt face has become second nature. Installing the primer is easy, even with the scope in place. The bolt does not reveal it has seen 33 shot; it is so clean.
The target was at 200 yard. The 3 shot in the red were made first. Then the other two followed. The load was 300g Deep Curl, 110g BH, crush rib sabot, W209 primer.
The cross hair wasn't proper, so i reinstalled the scope again. This was done this afternoon, after cleaning the rifle. Once again, the next time shooting, will involve re-zero the scope. Hopefully this time the initial sight in will be completed the third try.
