    Sighting the new bing bang

    Took my new bing bang to the range today to sight it in ready for a trip next week.

    Ran some factory softpoints then gave the barrel a clean. Next ran some handloads that are looking very promising.

    Also tested the bottle rest I got from the Youtube guy.

    Mauser M18 in .308 with a 22" barrel, DPT suppressor and Bushnell 3-9x40 scope.

    Handloads were 165gr Nosler Ballistic tips courtesy of Mickey Duck last year and ADI2208 powder with CCI LR primers.

    Thoughts on the bottle rest, not that easy to use off the bench it smacked me on the chin a couple of times, will probably be better shooting prone. However it does help to keep a solid rest and will do some field testing once I get my bipod on the rifle.
