Well a little shooting time today so here the results with mine and factory 123 grain sst loads. First 5 shot group was at 25 yards just to make sure it was on paper. It wasn't pretty,2" pattern. Second and third five shot groups were at 50 yards and looks much better but still not great. Moved out 150 yards for the remainder of the session which is the distance from deer stand to creek bottom where the deer travel. There were a couple groups right at MOA , most were 1.5 MOA and the last opened up to 2 MOA. Guessing the copper fouling was getting a little thick at that point. The gun ran flawlessly and the fit and finish is fine. Good enough for deer or coyote hunting as is but I'll see if she likes some 120 grain eldm handloads better at a later date.
