Seems to me that the rifle was better off without the "poor shooter". Hopefully "Troy" either gave up hunting or started practicing.However, Troy sold it later after missing a big mule deer buck because the rifle "was a poor shooter"....

In my case, my friend knew once I sighted in his gun, it was all on him. The last time I sighted it in I brought it back to him with a target that had three holes, nicely centered in the target with 2 shots touching and the 3rd just a 1/2" away. He looked at the target and said, "If I can't kill with this, I should quit hunting".
Awesome, I love pictures like these. Thanks for sharing!!!!!!!!!
I was dialing in my African big game rifle after changing scopes and this is how I liked it zeroed. Please excuse me if you've seen this picture a time or 2:
This is 2 different targets. One where I made adjustments to zero and the other a 10 shot group for chits and giggles:

Thanks, yep it was 100 yards on the nose...
No larger than 2.5" grouping after first shot. I think its ok for new rifle, scope, and zeroing in @ 50 yards. I guess I can only get better. We'll see in a few days when I try for 100 yards!

I used a cheapo Caldwell rest so I had to re-adjust alot. I need to tighten it up with some shims and weld a different bung in it for the arm elevation, and then I think it will be solid as a rock, and improve those groupings. It actually felt like it was made for an AR. I posted I have it on my coffee table right now, drawing up improvements.Good luck with it switchblade. Do you have a good solid rest for that AR? That makes a big difference when shooting for groups. Even some good sandbags work well if positioned properly... Sometimes getting an AR propped up on bags can be a pain...
Bi mart will yet but for some reason they cant do AR 15's
Ah yes, "group therapy". Funny, the dime never gets hit. Until now that is....

It's all fun and games until someone hits the dime... 1 shot 1 kill...
Chicken dinner winner ^^^1) Pull the upper off the lower and remove the bolt and carrier
2) Place upper on stable surface pointed at something unique and recognizable some distance away.
3) Sight down the barrel at this object/place and remember it.
4) Without moving the upper sight through and adjust your scope crosshairs/dot until they are centered on the same spot.
Tada, you're boresighted enough to be on paper at 50 yards....for free.
