Hi all,
Finally, I was able to get an AICS 2.0 SA RH stock. Love it very much!! And I took it to the range this morning.
Condition:
It is not the same range I had my previous zero set up before changed to this stock. The altitude is much lower, temp., humidity, baro. pressure, are all different. Light, less than 3mile wind from 1 o'clock. Shooting prone with bipod and rearbag.
Log:
First 3 shots were a nice half inch group give and take, but it was 2MOA low and 1.5MOA to the right. Dialed it in and hit 2 in the center. Followed up with a 5 shot group at 100yard and another 5 shot group at 200yd before I did some dot drill practice. Both group did pretty well.
The AICS definitely feels much better than the factory HS stock, took me some time to get used to it at the range, and probably need more dry firing time to really get used to it. It is much more user friendly than the HS stock that came with the rifle from Remington.
Now comes the question:
I know the range/condition is different, and I am not used to this stock as I haven't practice with it yet. But would it caused the zero to shift that much from my previous set up?
I keep thinking since the scope is attached to the action, changing the stock should not effect the set zero. My weird logic have served me wrong many times before, and I am not surprised if I am wrong again. Apologize in advance if this is a dump/newb question.
"Does changing the stock requires re-zero your scope?"
Thank you all very much, here is a few pix from today at the range to enlighten my boring post
Dyl..
I couldn't get my head to be straight, and still haven't figured out how. At least it looks like my body is straight behind the rifle. The bipod never hopped, so I think its bipod approved.
