Scope Sight-In

October 07th, 2013

 

Finally mounted a Nikon P-223 scope with a Wilson Combat quick-release scope mount on my modern sporting rifle (MSR) and fine-tuning the sight-in at the 100-yard line at Frontier Sportsman's Club - Fountain range.

 

I did okay with iron sights at 100 yards (and beyond), but a good optic makes a vast difference in hitting small spots 100 yards and beyond.

 

Used hand-loads consisting of Lake City brass, 24.0 grains of IMR 4895 powder, CCI 41 small rifle primers, and some generic 55 grain blemished FMJ bullets. The results were sub-MOA at 100-yards with the Rock River Arms AR-15.

 

Timed, self-portrait early Monday morning...
