    Got the calipers out....



    The CZ 457 did better overall today than it's maiden voyage. The average group size with CCI SV shrank and averaged 0.663" (0.819"). 4 out of 10 groups spanned 0.516" to 0.589" in size. For non match grade ammo, I really can't complain about that. But, I have a feeling this rifle wants to eat match grade ammo and someday that will probably/possibly/might/maybe happen.

    The Tippmann did really well today, but the technical results were tainted by two horrible flyers. I can 100% guarantee those were not shooter error either. Despite the flyers, it produced it's best group so far with an outstanding 0.285" using CCI SV, backed up by a 0.309" group as well. 4 out of 10 groups were sub-moa. If I filter out those two flyers, it's average would be 0.579" (0.836" with flyers) and that would beat it's previous average of 0.741". But that technically doesn't count, so it's only for my own entertainment purposes.

    Ever used an app called Range Buddy?
    Super fun to tinker with.

    Back from an enjoyable range trip. Well, my nose and fingers didn't enjoy the trip all that much (yes Mom, I had gloves on :)).

    Sighted in (3) 5.56 AR's with a total of 18 rounds. My 16" BCM has the PST 2.5-10 scope on it now, took it off my Tippmann 22, put 3 rounds right in the bullseye at 50 yards today with only boresighting it. That is not the first time that's happened either. I says to myself "yeah, I'm good with that". And myself agreed.

    Dialed in the 22 rifles with the new Athlon scopes, did some more 50 yard accuracy shooting and will move onto to 100 yards next time with them. Very impressed with the Athlon scopes so far.


    I have 3 Athlon's --- 2 of them are the same = Helos 6x24x50 which ride on the DD 5.56 V7 & the other is on the new Tikka Tac A1 308.

    The other is a new model on my BCM Precision 18"

    I just realized I wrote down the wrong scope. I have the Helos on those rifles, not the Argos.

    Jealous. I didn't do nearly as much bench shooting as I wanted to this year, but will make up for it next year... :yesway:

    Someone is having a sweeeeeet Christmas!

    Churchmouse pushed me to edge and Allen drug me over the cliff. Pretty excited to get my hands on this.

    Allen’s work is just top notch. Amazing.

    I’m pretty darned excited to be able to serve as caretaker for one of Allen’s masterpieces.
