What scope?

I couldn't afford a top notch scope. I got a Crimson trace Hard line 2 weeks ago and it says it'll be here tomorrow.

Dang it delivery exception on scope just now.

What method are you using for break in?

Edit; My normal break in is 1 shot clean with copper solvent for 20 then 3 shot clean for 20 then clean after every 5 rounds.

Depends on the barrel, a quality barrel with minimal machine marks left in the bore will be 1 and clean for 5-10 then 3 and clean for 5. Honestly I think most modern, quality barrels need very little to no break in.

I don’t do barrel break in. It’s all hocus pocus.

I clean every 200 rounds. It’s not a bench gun so you won’t see 1/8 inch accuracy improvements from break in or barrel cleaning when shooting specific rounds.

Also, that’s a nice scope. I believe they are made at the LOW factory in Japan.

Yessir, I love Japanese optics. They take pride in their work.

Japanese firearms as well seem to be good.

I may just clean it for 20 every shot and be done with it. Then clean it after trips to the range. I gotta reload for it 300 wm ammo factory stuff costs a mint.

Yes sir! That ammo is crazy these days, glad I stocked up years ago.

Will get some range data when I get it all put together.

Right now I installed a Nightforce 20 moa rail/mount base.
And the new compensator that has been getting good reviews. A Ultradyne Pegasus 7.62.

So far.

Very nice! That my wish list rifle that I hope to pick up in a year or so! Side note, it looks like you're have a wiring nightmare in the background.

I keep changing the wiring to my toys which leads to the mess you see. I gotta square it away some day.
