Very nice gun. Did they include the tactical vise grips so you can rack the slide?

I've never seen a tighter production gun. Built like a damn safe!

Mine makes a zippy noise when you rack it it is so tight.

Is the price tag on the scope for good luck or something? Oh, and the best shooting stock hunter I ever owned was a Savage Model 110 CL in .243.

It's a sighting in label with load info and trajectory info, drop values, etc.... gun is sighted 0 at 200 yards. I'll get the sticker off the scope somehow, it is unsightly.

Just kidding, I have drop information on the stock of my SWS. I knew what it actually was......

ya bastidge!

Wifey has seen the skunk tonight already, it's not even dark out. How low do I have to hold 'er for a 25 yd shot on a 200 sighting-in job? Tomorrow I go to the pit and blow a box or two through, dialing it in close.....

Never had a .223 before, it's all new to me......

I'm guessing that it's not too far off at 25 yards if actually zeroed at 200, but definitely best to check it to be sure. That scope is mounted a little high off the bore IMHO, not too bad but if it were mine I'd probably want lower rings to bring it down a little.

Sighting the rifle in? At that range, you could club them with your dick!

Actually not too bad on the slide. A little stiff at the start then smooth as butta'
