At the range and going to try and sight in the hornet. I find myself having yo get better scopes with my retinal vein occlusion. I'm also going to try my new Caldwell bench test. May get some shooting in with the T-Bolt as well. Waitng for the range Marshall to call the line hot.

M77 I purchased from a friend. I didn't need another rifle but he needed money to pay medical bills.

Last 10 rounds with 296 and 50gr Hornady SX. Very windy today making it a bit of a challenge but I'm pleased.

Nice looking 77, love the straight grain. Is that a tang safety model?

Thats some great shooting Jake. Rifle looks nice to dont blame you a bit for grabbing that one. If you get a chance try some of those Sierra 50 grain Blitz bullets.
