New Sporterized Argentine

Yep, I was sort of thinking that. I still drive by the Academy on the way to visit and back home if Carson Pass is usable. Well on HY 88. if not that one it could be Donner and if it's real bad to Tehachapi pass.

You should stop in at the range. Non-members can shoot there.

I finally got a scope mounted on the Argy. Good weather and free time happen to coincide today and I was able to get this to the range along with a FN SPR that I glommed a few months ago.



I didn't have a lot of time or ammo, but did manage to get the scope sighted in and fired at 100 yards.

175 gr FGMM @ 100 yards. I'm encouraged and think the rifle is capably of better...

That is about as good as it gets. Nice rifle, someone did a real good job on the build.

Thanks, jon

I'm going to keep working with it and try some handload development. The 175 gr FGMM is great stuff, but I have bested it in other rifles with handloads.

I'm trying to shoot some of the safe queens and took the .308W Argentine out this week.

Fired a couple of 5-shot groups at some of those 3" reactive targets.

100 yards with 175 gr FGMM.



Four good shots, and then a flyer to the left. The targets come two together, this was the bottom one. I made a scope adjustment, then shot the top target.



I need to see what reloading can do.
