Super happy with this TRP [20"]. I started to check my "Zero" at 9/10yds with a 6:00 O'clock hold and required no adjustment. Fired 2 more groups at 9 yds without any flyers. I let the rifle cool down for a few minutes, and ran a dry patch down the barrel. Fired three more groups after I moved the target out to 25 yds. The group centered about 1&1/4" high, but the windage still didn't require anything. I would like to move out to 50 yds, but this is an indoor range with a 25 yd max.

The next step is to find some ammo that it really likes and buy the shop out.

If I can get this rifle to really shoot well, maybe I could trade it to my son for my old Anschutz Ms64 . . .

Anyone up to speed on putting a full-size buttstock on a Mare's Leg, (Legal or Illegal? ) . . .

Legal if you want to give ATF some big $$ for a tax stamp after filling out a lot of paper work and if they approve. Otherwise it could mean three hots and a cot.

Putting the full stock on the Mares Leg makes it a "Short Barreled Rifle," this requiring the $200 tax stamp and papperwork.

You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.
