Got out to the range finally. It was cold as hell so I didnt take any pics and only shot 35 times due to helping my cousin with his 223. I shot 2 different types of ammo. 150gr Winchester and 180gr Remington Core-lokt. I got a 1.25 in group out of the Remington after some tweaking. I plan on shooting some match ammo next trip. I just needed to get dialed in for a coyote hunt i went on. First bolt action I have ever shot other that a rimfire and first time shooting off a bipod. Overall i was happy! Thanks to all who helped me out over the last couple months!

That's not bad. I think that even without any changes, you'll find more accuracy as you become more accustomed to the rifle and bipod.

Congrats on the new rig. Don't forget that even though it is cold outside a person can do alot to improve their accuracy by dry firing at home working on their breathing, trigger control and cheeck weld!

Shoot straight / shoot safe.
