Got my new Shooter Today

A Mossberg ATR 100 30-06 with a Weaver 3x12x50 Scope , bore sighted and ready for the range

Thanks Academy

Looks good Dan!!!

Thanks Scott ,

can't wait to see the groups on paper

Hope it shoots as good or better than the one of those I sighted in for a coworker. Congrats

Thanks kmon1 ,

Will put it on paper next weekend in young county !

Did not care for the clarity & groups using the 3x12x50 Weaver, It's going back to academy for a refund !

Got a Pentex Gameseeker II 2.5X10x56 ordered and in the mail

Ebay

You'll be alot happier when you sell that thing and buy another brand, savage, Remington, Winchester, ruger, sako,or howa

Way to rain on a guys parade there, buddy. Ever heard the phrase If you can't say something nice....?

I don't want him to be disappointed in a few months when the thing malfunctions. I've never had a good mossberg gun, ever. I'd just rather stay away from them, and was trying to help him.

Congrats, nice looking gun!

I had a mossberg like that in .308 and it was a good shooter. Congratulations...

Thanks , can't wait to get the 56mm Pentex scope

Good looking rifle, I think you'll be happier with the new scope. Range report when you can!

I've had 5 100 art rifles in different calibers all shot 1-2in groups at 200 yards.

Bought the Burris Extreme Tactical rings today to mount my Pentex 2.5-10X56 Gameseeker II

The Pentex Gameseeker II has the Drop Compensating Reticle

Let me know how that Pentax works out for ya, I've wanted to try one but nobody around here even knows what they are.

OK we have changed out the scope twice now , tried 150 gr & 165,180 in winchester & remington , 2 different persons on the sled on the range and the best group was 4"

Terrible & disappointed and called Academy today and they said they will ship it for free to mossberg for it to be fixed or replaced

Anyone else had problems with the ATR 30-06 ?

Sorry to hear about your luck... thanks for the honest product reviews

Only thing I will get from mossberg is a shotgun. Even then I like remington for a cheap shotgun. Best bet is to upgrade alittle even 100$ more will get you a little better gun

Sorry to hear that. I work at Academy and unfortunately this happens all to often with Mossberg bolt actions. It also might help if you put a better scope on the gun. I don't want to sound like a DB or anything but a $99 scope on a 30-06 ain't gonna cut it. At the very least, on a gun with that much recoil, I would get a Nikon Prostaff.

Well there must be lots of problems with the Mossberg ATR's as Academy refunded my money thank God .

Decided on the Remington 700 ADL in the .308 for little more $$ and mounted the 2.5x10x56 Pentax Gameseeker II scope on it !

I think the odds are that this one will shoot much better. We all wanna know how it does! Good luck.

Thanks and will do , should have known better to try a Mossberg

I have a buddy at work that swears by those Gameseekers.

Excellent choice with the Remington, you are going to like it a lot better. There are some on here that don't like the X-Mark trigger, however I am not one of them.

Range report when you can.

I've got the same rifle, just have a Leupold VariX-IIc mounted rather than the Pentax. I really enjoy it, especially in .308. Soft-shooting, ~1 MOA accuracy, and it's smooth once you break it in.
