Ok guys.... I have pulled of a shot that even I couldn't of guessed Id make.
Me and the FIL were at the range. Me with the Marlin, Him with his 1022.
I shoot at 50 yards for a while testing out different ammo and getting exelent groups with most of it.
Then I decide to group at 100 yards. I make a group and my FIL tells me hes got a challange for me. He knows how I am about challanges!!
He tells me to hit a 209 shotgun primer at 100 yards. OK!
So I set up with some clays on the back of the stock to keep it steady and the bipod on the front. I decide to use remington bulk to REALLY test out the round.
I get into position saying "Leland, what have you gotten yourself into?"
FIL says "Its not like ill blow your brains out if you dont hit it...."
I tell him that it really is because ive NEVER missed a challange.
I get into position and fire my first group. I cant see the primer because the primer is smaller than my crosshairs at 100 yards.
I get a sticky the size of a penny and put the primer in the middle of it and go mark my groups. I make an adjustment on my scope and go again.
Another trip to the target to check and mark groups.
Another adjustment on the scope.
After another 6 shots I hear the primer hit and the sticker flies off the target!!!!!
Me and the wife go look and the target has a black burn on it and the wife finds the sticker.... blackened and burnt!
I look closer at the target and Ive got 3 shots RIGHT under the primer all in a single hole!!
NOW THATS A GROUP!!
Now what do I do....
