    Well I took my new/old girl out to the farm to stick a few shots through her. I just bore sighted it and fired 6 shots. The last 3 I fired at a 30m target to get a rough idea what she was shooting like.

    I was shooting off a Caldwell Tackdriver that was sitting on a wooden fence at about 3/4 below my usual standing shooting position. So not the most sturdy or stable. But my bore-sighting was pretty close. It shot 2 shots into 2-inches even from that unstable position. I can't wait to see what it'll do from a stable prone position. I'm stoked the way it shoots for a 106 year old rifle! I was using PPU 180-grain ammo
