Tomorrow she gets a work out at the range to see if any tweaks need to be made but I think she's ready to rock.
That's a beautiful specimen. :drool:

Thanks, guys. The bullseye looked like a speck of dirt at that distance. I did cheat though and used a sandbag rest. :lol::

Aaaww thats OK> At least you did not cheat unfairly.
See, way I figger it, if sandbags is a cheat then a post is a cheat too, just not as good a cheat.
From there them good sites is too. So to not cheat you gotta get SGT Yorks 7 shooter & do it one handed. "rlol"

Now THAT's what I call unfair.
