Went to the range today

[Allen in MT]

Finally picked up a used scope locally, a Leupold VX3 3-9x40 Compact.
got it mounted on the new Anschultz 1416 D HB and went to the range to get it on paper.
Took 10 different types of ammo but only got thru the Norma Match 22 and ended with this 10 shot group.

Forgot to bring the cleaning rod to clean before changing brands and the wind was picking up so deceided to call it a day. Was shooting off the shoulder with a Harris bi-pod. I know it needs to tighten up a bit more but it will get better, I hope. 9 more brands of ammo to go thru to see what it really likes.
Going to my 1st IR 50/50 shoot this weekend for something to do and will shoot in the Sporter class.
Anytime I can get out and shoot is a good day.
enjoy

Hello, my first post here. Some interesting trivia for you . I have an Anschutz make in the early 30's that my uncle brought back from Germany in 1946. It is a single shot 6mm. The first gun I ever shot when I was a young lad. He gave it to an older cousin and my cousin gave it to me when I was 12. I'm 78 now and will pass this to my grandson when I check out. Quality made rifle. Good shooting. Oldknifemaker.

In college while on the rifle team I shot a Savage Anshultz 22 ... single shot. Extremely accurate rifle when set up properly and shot with a steady hand and rest as well as good breathe control ... Oh yah ... almost forgot ... coach wouldn't let use drink coffee within 6 hours of a match.
