Default Friday night at the SPFGA range with my Wby Accumark

Finally got the chance to shoot my newer Weatherby Accumark at the SPFGA range out to the 300M/328Y range. Couldn't be happier with the performance at that distance. With a little fine tuning and practice, i think I may have a winner for elk hunting this fall......paper elk doesn't taste so good! Feeling good about this shooting with factory loaded ammo. Cheers all, Dudes2010

Well I'd say if that were a real elk it'd be a dead elk! What about a pic of the rifle?

The steaks would be paper thin.

Thats pretty good!......Dad and I do the same thing every september &October at the range,but we use a whitetail buck target at 300 meters and shoot at it using our Bi-pods laying and sitting down.

Default Pic of my Accumark

Kevin, as per your request.......

Bad lighting conditions under the canopy to get a good picture but you get the idea. Beautiful night to be shooting, low wind and some sun. Pretty much in my Happy Place.

That's a nice looking rig, I like the fluted barrel. I like looking at other members rifles.
