6.5x47 lapua and range report
well as everyone knows i have been building a 6.5x 47 lapua. finally got some ammo but dont have a good scope but just coulding resist sending a few down range and doing a quick break in. i fired five groups four 3 shot groups and one 5 shot group all under .90 here is a updated pic of her and the two best groups measured center to center! ammo was lapua 123 gr. scenar factory loads!
Where did that hit? I dont know aim alittle higher!

looks like it oughta kill something just fine!
It's hard to detect good luck, It looks so much like something you've worked hard for and earned.

Try some 140gr A-Max for long range work, very accurate bullet in my 6.5 Lapua.

+1 for the Vortex Viper. I have a 6.5X20 on my heavy barrel 6.5 Lapua.
