About LinkBacksYears ago when I was young fulla I had a couple of bad shots with the Ruger M77 .270. I knew that rifle inside out and often shot to 300yds on the range so was pretty practiced with it. I remember shooting 2 goats once that were so far away I aimed about a foot high and hit them low in the chest; a long range for those days. I'm not sure what the range was but it was sighted in t be 2.5" high at 100. It grouped 3 shots into around an inch with just under max handloadsOriginally Posted by Flyblown
Well I muffed a couple of sitters. Usually I always blame myself first, but this time for some reason blamed the rifle. Anyhoo.... Went to the range to test and it was smack on target. So yup, was my fault..... Lesson learnt (again!)
