...or getting on paper...
... NIB Browning A-Bolt Long Range Hunter/ 6.5 Creedmore, 1:8 26" barrel/ Leupold VX-2 6X18 AO...
...out of the box, fit & finish/ Very Good, the matte finish is probably best described as "Robust", no rough edges, tooling marks, molding marks, etc. Trigger was a relatively heavy 4.5#, easily adjusted down to 2.5#, no travel, no creep, just plain "Crisp". Slapped on the scope, stopped @ the gravel pit on the way down the mountain, set out a 25yd. target, bore sighted the rifle. A few rounds to make sure it was "on paper" w/ some 140gr. A-Max factory loads...
...moved the target out to 100yds., a little more adjustment...
...the "Final Four" (up top)...
...I think w/ a little better rest than the BullBag off the hood of the rig, & a few less "snot sickles" (took the temp. as I was leaving)...
...she's ready to go to the 200yd. line...
