Sighted in the big bores... and got the DAQ to group RB!

Did a little sight in with my big bores today.



I had recently put up a Wanted post for cheapie scopes and a gentleman responded with a nice RWS 4x32 model 350 scope at a good price. Not exactly what I had in mind, but for the price, I could not pass it up. Figured I'd put it on something...and I did... the DAQ. I had been having issues with the DAQ grouping round balls, but with the addition of the new scope, it grouped them nicely.

First grouping was at 20 yards, 3 shots. My CF tank is low and I had to hand pump so I limited it to 3 shot groups.


Moved it out to 50 yards and came up with this nice group.


After a bit of adjusting, I got it about 2 1/2 inches high and dead on. Wanted it a bit high at 50 to make longer shots easier. I aimed a little low at a small dot target and took one shot...


Also fired up the 909s to see if it was still on target... and it was. First shot was a touch high at 50 yards, but the next two went in the same hole. Not too shabby.


Some recovered lead from the steel backstop...


and the business end of first the 909s and the DAQ 50



Next was shooting the TX200HC in .22. This gun sometimes gives me trouble grouping, but today... it was on.


I then shot the LW8 a bit, no groups, just spinners....


Took out my FWB300 and was plinking and noticed a hole in a 2x4 I had set up at 20 yards. The hole was clean through, made by my DAQ. I decided to try to shoot through the hole in the 2x4. Playing around having fun.


And lastly, another group with the Kodiak in .25. I'm starting to get the hang of this gun now... likes a bit of a firmer hold than I first though.




Also took some pics of the latest project.... more to come on this.........

That 909 seems to stand it's own against the DAQ.
What #s are each getting?
Cheers, David.

I'd love to see some long range groups, 100 yards.
