The thread you seek is "here" ETA - No you don't need to resubmit - at .416 moa, you killed it. Do tape over those erroneous red numbers and rewrite the true numbers on, change pic in your photobucket account and repost the new pics. |

What COAL are you going to? If I use what was suggested in a different thread, it is way to long for a Pmag or Lancer.

I know they keep the original at the shop. Not sure if they'll send out copies though They will, if you ask real nice-like... I misplaced mine, so my participation in the Outshoot the Shootist challenge was on hold... Asked polite-like, and a couple days later, one showed up in the mail. I tried to make it easy to find for them, remembered the specifics (date, order number, etc), not sure how they file them away... |

After DJ'ing a wedding yesterday I now have enough cash to scope the tOBR and give this challenge a shot. Rick Perry gave me a real challenge with a 0.487" group so this might take a while.
Also, this is going to be one expensive dillo! |
