Mitch, it was nice before but it's bound to be great now! Is yours a single stage or a two stage trigger?

Man - those look like a terrific value! Anschutz trigger and everything?!

Went to the range yesterday to try some ammo. I tried to get some good groups, but when I got to the range I forgot that my sandbags were in my wife's car and not in mine. I used my range bag to to shoot off of, but the groups would have been a little tighter if I had a proper rest. I didn't get to test every kind of ammo I had, but I did test Eley Team, Eley Club, CCI Greentag, CCI Standard Velocity, and Eley Sport. The CCI SV shot best. All groups half an inch or less, outside to outside, not center to center. The Eley (all of them) didn't group well, but the Team did produce one group under half an inch. More testing next weekend.

How did you post the photos?

I post photos by uploading pictures in Photobucket.com. Once they are uploaded they "host" them, or whatever the technical stuff is, and each photo has a code under it. Take the image code and copy and paste it in your reply. Once the reply is submitted the picture will show up.

I had a bad day at the range today. I couldn't get anything to group. I tried RWS Target Rifle, Eley Target, Federal 711b, SK Standard+, and some of the new CCI SV i bought recently. The Federal and CCI would group well for 2 shots, then throw two, and the last one would sometimes go back in the group. No wind. About the same temp as last time. I am thinking that maybe the screws on the scope rings might have started to loosen up. Or it could be the stock. It just seemed like I was shooting a different gun today.
