RE: New Rife
Thanks for the tips.
I took the rifle out this weekend and sighted it in using Knight 260gr Lead sabots with 2 50 pyrodex pellets,using open sights.
At 2" high at 50 yds I was right on at 100 yds. Groups were bigger than I expected about 3" - 4". I think getting used to shooting with open sights at 100yds is something I have to practice, the group size is probably more me than the loads or bullet style.
I took it all apart and cleaned it as you guys and Knight recommended.It wasn't that hard, but did take some time.
I plan on practicing some more before changing bullets or loads.
Once again thans for the advise.
