i was using a Hornady round with a ballistic tip, so yeah, it ripped a nice hole at 120 yards. Thats why the .22-250 is perfect for me.
To Austin : I learned to shoot from a few friends that are military (marines, rangers) snipers. I also learned to take care of a gun from the same guys. I would take their real world experience of how to keep a precision rifle accurate over some boopa fudgepie in an Winchester corporate building.
Back to the sale, Steve did you do anything even related to seasoning the barrel in the first 100 shots or so?
