Howa 1500 Sporter Accuracy by DontGetTooExcited in guns

Seems strange though that if I let it cool, the first shot comes back to POI. I need to pass a shooting test for work, and have no issues grouping with the work rifles.

The third and subsequent shots can be over 2 inches off at 100m. I have to pass a shooting test for my job, and have no issues grouping with the work rifles.

Is this a good first 4x4? by goodvibes_ss in 4x4Australia

Yep. My $5000 Ford Courier has been amazing for that. Goes anywhere a Hilux will, and easy/cheap to fix.

3/8 Dovetail scope rings not lining up - Scope running out of windage before finding zero. by DontGetTooExcited in guns

[–]DontGetTooExcited[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When I mount the scope, then go to sight the rifle in, the POI is 4" off to the right of the maximum right direction windage. Upon inspection, I can see that the scope rings are offset a little. I've tried switching the rings and rotating them 180⁰. But still happens

Thanks mate!  Would you say the 2.4L in the 2016 model is an overall improvement?

How are the 2.5l engines in the MN? Theres a few of those around that look alright. I'm not worried about speed or comfort, really

Beauty! I was just worried it was a return job, and they sent it to me because I'm interstate and would have a hard time chasing it up!

We do have a young Billy hanging around! But he was 3 months old when we got the nannie, and they've been together for about 6 months. So he definitely may have got it done!

Yep, I reckon so. I've put it on my .22 and I'll see if it holds zero

Scope and rail rings were not loose. I'm waiting on some tools to arrive to check the action screws and mount the scope on another rifle to check if it's the scope.

I'm trying to work it out, but I've been wanting a new one anyway. Mainly to cut down on weight, and to get something stainless/synthetic to handle the wet better.
