Great feedback do far guys, many thanks. I'm pretty sure I'm in the stone age compared to most of you, I had always been a "hunter" and not much of a shooter and haven't gone down this road before. The projectiles are exactly "two layers of green masking tape" off the lands, which fits in the mag fine. I was shooting off my Remington bipod while lying on a ute tray cover on the wet grass with my jacket rolled up under the stock, this was my attempt to take myself out of the equation as much as possible while shooting.
As far as mounting, I am no pro, but I was confident in how I did it, degreased and thread locked everything except for top half of rings (warne30mm rings leupold rail), I did not lap the rings, but I did make sure they were pushed forward onto the rail to prevent them moving under recoil and sat the scope on there before final tighten.
My next trip out to the farm I'll try a couple of things,
More data on 3 shot groups.
7-10 shot groups.
I'll hopefully come back to this thread with photos to get some help from you guys to "decode" results.
There may be some inputs on my end that may be impacting results, shoulder reconstructions have me a bit "soft"
Anything else you guys recommend?
