Got to shoot the other day at a property that allows us to get out to 600yds, I had one of my target 260's and my TGR 257 Roberts.
I was shooting at a 8" piece of steel, and progressively moving it out to record the drops. Shot the TGR (who is know as 'Bob' to all that shoot with me). I was shooting 2 shots, and going down range to take a good look at the impacts (don't own a spotter) and making the appropriate adjustments.
Here is Bob's first 2 shots at 300yds.
Hot D*mn!!! I had some jugs with me, and thought I would try and catch one of the 110AB's at 300yds. Just as a reminder, they clock just a tad over 2800fps.
Lined up some jugs, and this is what I found:
Was poking out of the 4th jug bassackwards......here is how it looked when removed
Weight was 67gr, for about 61% retention.
Needless to say, I am quite pleased with this TGR, and with the performance of the AccuBond.
Here is the first 2 shots at 500yds
I think I can work with that!!!
Bob had no trouble ringing the steel all the way out to 600yds.
On a side note, I have put a VX2 3-9x40 CDS on this rifle, and the combination is outstanding, the Luppy tracked perfectly, and I have ordered the custom dial to the specs of the load.
Overall, it would be hard to reach for another rifle when going on a deer or yote hunt.
Sorry for the long post.
