    @Rebel_Rider1969 yes it is 50...and I might disagree with that great shot sheet :cool:
    I might shoot tomorrow on the other bench and if I do I will try to post that.

    I just ordered a ball head for my BOG from Little Crow to convert mine. Ball will hold 44# and makes it ARCA compatible...it even converts the original head to ARCA.

    @Eagle Eye it isn't hard to shoot that poorly...just don't pay any attention to the wind flag in front of the bench...just watch the 25yd flag and the one at the target.
    I only meant that as a Positive , not a negative .. I couldn't shoot like that with negative winds . I do know that many strive for perfection , but I settle a bit less these days .

    Got the early, early Marlin Glenfield put back together, smoke tested, now clean, it functions like a sewing machine. Those 22s auto rifles get so nasty inside they will start skipping a minor step, like firing. The parts washer pan had a pile of crud about the size of my thumb nail. Was like a pinch of sand particles.

    Then took the H&R-700 down in order to do a trigger job on it, found that it has a trigger pull adjustment screw, now that was an easy enough trigger job. Interesting little rifle. A 22 Mag, clip fed rifle with nice blued metal finish, nice wood, folding Williams like rear sight, ramp with front bead and and an adjustable trigger. Has a cheap Chi Com type Tasco on it, probably be better for the owner, to put a better center fire scope on it. Will probably shoot well enough for laying out the few extra bucks for half decent scope.

    Test fired a Savage 99 my buddy barreled for another buddy. Couldn't find a .308 barrel like it had so he rechambered a 300 Savage barrel we found on FleaBay

    I went about 45 minutes up the road from my buddy's and changed a combo on his gun safe for him.

    Was digging around a little and rescued this for @Daezee
