Wel Trevor I went out when the wind dropped off to nothing this arvo.
I set up a fly target at 300 metres and startd to shoot some groups, with the .223 CZ classic.
The first three shots were to get the scope adjusted ( SEE TARGET) and then I shot a five shot group. The five shoots went into a 2.891 group, which made me happy because that is still under "MOA" at 300 metres and three of the shoots measured .892, and that was with a 8x40 Tassco scope. I was very impressed.
I will put my Xmas present Weaver 6-20x40 on the .223 when I get the rings lapped and will try and tighten those groups and get them on the fly.

Sorry Trevor that was a bad choice of words so I deleted the " bring it on" statement.
I had a few sherberts last night.
What I really ment to say was, "hurry up, April for the Leeton shoot".
I will frigg around with my 250, but I'm pretty sure that I will use my .223.

trevort,
I did not miss them, I just did not think you would bring the box trailer
AI,
I was talking to Shane the other day and we are thinking of shooting the heavy guns ... So the 300Win Mag, the 7mm STW.
Did I mention how close together the benches are at Leeton .. oh and how you are sitting between the 300WM and the 7mmSTW
cheers

Knackers, no offence was taken, friendly banter is all good. I actually sent you a rev up pm the other night but glad your slow to check them as I was able to delete it in the morning before you read it!
The only thing that I'm worried about at Leeton is a good shot like you with a factory rifle making me look stupid with my $$$$$ custom rifle! Last year with my 6mm I had to hold off the target some times when the 6.5x 284 shooters had to just hold off one or two target rings. thats gotta make it easier, I hope!

The wind is gunner screw me, thats if it is windy, around April/May the days are very still around these parts usually, so I have my fingers crossed
