    Interesting savage 110 video about practical accuracy

    https://youtu.be/x021s_Pjnp4

    A basic 3-9*40 duplex. Holdover and some cheap ppu ammo.

    Depends what "practical accuracy" is?
    To miss a torso size steel plate at 250 yards is certainly not accurate enough for hunting - in my opinion. And the rest of the hits where all over the plates so again not good enough to put a deer on the deck...

    It is a course based around practical accuracy of service rifles. The video's for the M39 Finn, Kar98 Sniper Rifle, and M16A4 are notable highlights.

    Yup, given the flash start of the video, I ended up being a bit disappointed. If they had used their fancy graphics skills to clearly show where the hold points were for each target it would have made the whole production a lot more useful imho.

    I think for a modern bolt action under an inch and into a deer kill zone in light winds.

    I agree.
