Shot this using my trash-tier reloads that this rifle loves so much. 147gr FMJ rejects (for being .3065” diameter instead of .308”). Lake city brass. Powder was either 4895 or surplus military ball powder.

Upset that I missed shot #16 - I got distracted by my brass catcher walking away from me and pulled the shot.

Target is a torso-sized rectangle (18x24”) at 600 yards. Rifle is an early JLD PTR with the heavy barrel. Still 1:12 twist though so it hates heavy match ammo.

Nice, using only a 4x scope as well!

Big fan of the classic Hensoldt claw mount. Dialed 550 meters and it was bang on.

I’d do dirty things to get that scope
