Today I mounted a Bushnell Trophy Red Dot on the rifle. I found that if you use the red dot and the front sight.. this thing is a tack driver. I put the red dot right on the tip of that front sight and then use a 6 o'clock hold.



The first group out of it was the low one. So I gave it some clicks and shot the center group. I think there is 18 rounds there. Then I loaded and did combat point and shoot and found I shoot high in a combat stance, but not too bad. Had that top spray been a chest cavity, there would have been a lot of hurt going on there.

That little rifle is a shell eater though. I wiped out the rest of a #555 box of Winchester shells. Good thing I have three more boxes. I wonder if the neighbor about a mile away can hear that thing going off. Must think there is a war going on at my place. Wait until them 26 shot magazines show up...

After sighting it in, I was spinning targets. Did you know that the color red, like barn red, blends in very good in the woods. I had some spinners painted today, that color and through that rotten Red Dot, they are hard to pick out in the bushes. I might have to put a 1x20 Nikon on that rifle.

But the 4"x4" steel plates at 50 yards were a snap. hold 3/4 on the plate and ping away. I was even shooting paint cans at 100 yards making them swing.

It is a nice little rifle. I am going to name it.. my Magic Rifle. Because in no time at all it can make bullets disappear.


Those are nice rifles there sabotloader. I just did not want another bench rifle. It seems that is all I do anymore is bench shoot. I wanted a fun rifle. But that Savage looks like a real squirrel killer. With this one, it makes me want to run and gun. Walk towards a spinner and shoot as I walk. Now that is a good way to waste bullets...
