New personal best with the .204 R

Post by 247sniper »

Hi guys,

Only been out with my new 204 ruger a few time as I have had a few health problems, i have nailed a few rabbits between 200- 250 yards. Even this has been new territory for me as I have only had a .22 hornet.

Went out yesterday, within 5 min I ranges 2 rabbits next to each other at 375 yards, I selected the biggest one dialed in 3.75 MOA for elevation and 1MOA for the Windage .

Seteled into the shot and sent a 39 SBK straight at it. Saw the impact through the scope with a strong report returning back from the target a second or so later.

I shot another one later on but he was a bit closer at 225 yard. He was turned inside out as well.

All in all it was a lovely day and a new Pb was the highlight of it.

Not long shot by some standards but they are getting longer. Just need to get out a bit more, keep practiseing and keep pushing it. :)

Love the .204 8)

Atb
Steve.
