Garland...... Target is a dead give away. Normally I take a silhouette, turn it backwards and place my dots on the back side. No need for grid lines once a weapon is sighted in.
The rifle is set up with a Harris on the front and was bagging the back. Looking through NF glass pulling on a Timney 3 lb trigger. I have been working on my pull but what has come to the surface here lately, as evidence in the pics is the shot placement moving around and the fliers. As stated, I am taking time between shots, concentrating on my breathing and trying to be consistent with the trigger.
I have a .223 setup that shoots on the same level as my Grendel but I don't get the movement of my groups like I have with this one. Both rifles are almost identical in components with the exception of a mono-pod on the .223, glass and caliber.
The first excuse that I tried to give my self was the wind. It was blowing directly across the range and gusting at times but at a 100 yds, i wouldn't think it would make that much of a difference. Could be wrong for thinking that far into it. lol......
Don't get me wrong, I am very pleased with how the Grendel is shooting. It's just my skill level that is beating me up knowing what the rifle is capable of and that I am the limiting factor. Time behind the trigger is always a good solution but at the same time, I feel there is some guideance in direction that is missing to help improve my consistency.
