First shot was off paper, 2nd and third shot were an inch apart at 30 yds that's all i shot today im gonna get that stuff from you and continue farther. I dunno whats its gonna do at 100. I grinded down the scope base so it wouldn't touch the lug, and realized after i shot i put it on backwards. So we will see.
