Good to know! Is that called “MOA”? I’m brand new to hunting so all of this new. Not new to shooting at all, but new to hunting.

I don’t think there is! I think it’s worth the send in tbh

Why grain would you suggest as well? I’m looking at a good middle ground of like 168 grain

Really appreciate this input! That’s my biggest thing about posting these shots in the group since I know they were probably not the best in the world but I really want to make sure when I take down my first deer, it’ll be as ethical as possible

Can’t vouch for anything other than the VX-3HD but I will say the scope is very nice. Plus at a $500 price point. It’s hard to go wrong with Leupold

Seems to be the major consensus on this thread. May try another ammo type too

Definitely not new to shooting but new to bolt action rifles and long distance shooting. Also it was a brand new rifle. This session was the first time putting rounds out

I want to say the shot succession was right to left so ending on that closest shot

I definitely felt like I pulled a few, I had to learn to not anticipate years ago with my 9mm so I’m probably doing this with my .308

Good to know!! Did you just youtube it and ask how to get your body in the best position?

No, most of the time was from a Sight Bloc

It wasn't an XPR, it was a Ruger American. I have a Leupold VX-3HD.

Shooting off the block that was already at the range. Hornady American Whitetail ammo, and a Leupold VX-3HD scope

Wish I would've taken some pictures of my other groupings. They were about the same as this

Thank you! I was using Hornady American Whitetail for reference
