    This is my effort. I had just put my 7mm08 tikka into one of @Fisherman lovely stocks.
    Shot at 315yrds exactly as I would shoot in the field at this range. Backpack front rest and raincoat rear rest. Ranged, dialed and 3 shots off in about minute. Perfectly acceptable for a lightweight walk-about rifle in my opinion.

    Nice which one is your first shot as thats the only shot that counts for the dinner plate challenge.
    Remember the 7 “P”s; Pryor Preparation Prevents Piss Poor Performance.

    Top lefthand impact was first. Wasn't exactly thinking of the dinner plate challenge when I shot this. Was more a confirmation of zero with new stock installed. But nice to know I'd have been on the money with field rest and cold clean bore.
