I was only shooting at 25 yds today, wasn't feeling all that great this morning so I just hung out where I was. The target on the bench is 20 rounds, mostly through one big hole. I'll see what it will do at 100 yds the next time out.

Another trip to the range
I put this AR together a few months ago, function tested it and put it back in the rack until I had time to finish tweaking it. Mounted a Bushnell scope I had on it and off to the range this morning.

Is that 300 blackout? Nice knife.
30/30 Winchester: Not accurate enough fer varmints, barely adequate for small deer; BUT In a 10" to 14" barrelled pistol; is good for moose/elk to 200 yards; ground squirrels to 300 metres

Re: Another trip to the range
No, just a plain old 5.56. I tried a .300 BO but I didn't care for it. Too many cartridges to reload for already.
The knife is an older Cold Steel that I've had for years. Sheath fell apart just after I got it and it spent a couple of decades in the box
until last summer when I had a leather one made for it.

Re: Another trip to the range
I hear that, i was to 19 different cartridges i loaded for. Was down to 9 last spring but have since acquired a .257 Roberts and a 25/06. I should have bought XD 9mm Compact but didnt think quick enough. Picked up stainless 2.25" SP101 in 357. Great little gun.
