I finally made a trip to the range today. I have been working part time, and got off at noon over near where the range is located, about 50 miles from home, so the employer is footing the bill for the trip over.
Late last year family commitments and a trip home to Ga for the wife precluded any shooting, then the heat wave hit and I just refused to go in all the 100 degree plus heat we had all summer.
I wanted to play around with adjusting the express sights on a CZ Safari rifle in 375 H&H as well as fine tuning the scope, so burned through 50 rounds off a bench. It sounds rough but the rifle is large enough and just heavy enough so the recoil is actually much less than a couple of my 30-06's, a lot less. Add to that 20 rounds through my old 9.3x57 Husqvarna sporter, and 40-50 through my M-1 Garand. By the time I shot it I was getting tired and only managed about a 3 1/2" group at 100 yards, not a little 3 shot group but 24 rounds or 3 clips.
Now have got to clean them and get ready for another trip.
