The FV has been sitting in the box propped in the corner for a year before it was topped today with a Vortex Crossfire II 3x9x40 budget glass on Redfield aluminum tacticool four whole rings. This is my handy plinker, tin can killer, pest gitter, paper wacker. I picked up the FV because I wanted a bolt action, magazine fed, short barreled rifle basically a compact .22 and this one fit the bill.
Here I am getting the rifle level, I could not find my torpedo so the 4' had to do...
The level is sitting on the rail.
And there it sits
I used the peek through bore at paper taped to the wall, mark and get the reticule close method, it was within 1.5" at 50' with cb longs in the backyard. I also cut and piled up cardboard taped on the comb and to lengthen the LOP so I have a measurable adjustment to go from. Now I need to get creative on the factory plastic to get it to fit me better....frankenstock.....I really would like some nice thumb-whole wood and different rings and base to lower the scope but I am using what I have till $$$ flow better.
