I mainly wanted to get my H-S on paper to see how the SWFA SS 20x42 was and I was actually impressed the crosshairs are thick but I was still able to get the job done. I also found out my rifle is loving this American Eagle 168gr OTM for the price you cant get any better. I had to pull the SCAR heavy out for some fun as well as the AR unfortunately I didnt have enough time to zero them in so the groups aren't pretty but the guys at the range had fun shooting them lol.

Heres a few pics and footage from the GoPro cam mama just got me. partyon555

Im no expert bud my rifle has a 1:12 twist, 168gr and 170's shoot good for me. Depending on your twist you have to experiment a little federal premium gold is good stuff but your gonna pay American eagle is made by federal its super cheap and still gives great results.

Ohh man we just got through cleaning everything, we took out an arsonel as well.

We took both LWRC's 5.56 and 6.8, Barret Rec-7 6.8, Scar 16, Sig 556 Both of my precision rigs and dialed in the Glock 34s adjustable sights.

I also learned two valuable lessons.

A. Never leave a case of Cherry 7up in your SUV for a week of 101+ temps as it will explode in your cargo area.

B. a Sig Sauer 556 Swat Patrol, will run 100% even covered in Sticky Cherry 7up.


Fun cap to a crappy week for me and my friend up
