[QUOTE="Pilchard, post: 5803788, member: 19427"] Thanks! It's a beautiful model 700 chambered in 22-250. I don't recall the date it was manufactured but I think it was in the late 80s but I should double check based off the serial number. I shot it back in October hoping that this day would come and it stacked 5 shots that would fit inside of a nickel at 100yds. I have the recipe for my grandfather's hand-loads somewhere. I know the bullets are 55gr sierras and it's shooting about 3700fps. The best part about the gun though is the trigger. I've never shot a gun with a trigger so light. All you have to do is breathe on it for the trigger to break. As for my son's shooting, I'm not quite sure how he pulled off the shot. We have practiced with a 22lr but I have not let him shoot a centerfire rifle before. I guess it worked! [/QUOTE]
