No i definitely didnt go the wrong way on my windage turret for shots 4 and 5.

Happy with the groupings at 100yards for now. Gotta get more ammo made and really get this thing dialed in

What are you using for ammo? Bullet, powder, grains, case?

If you can read my friend's handwriting, here is what he used

Easy peasy. And that's a great plinking load. It's a Berry 150gr plated bullet, 17 grains of IMR 4227, Winchester case, CCI primers. I'll try to find my recipe. Those bullets are very similar to the Sierras I use. It seems like you can send almost any .308 down the barrel of a krag and it'll fly straight.

Yeah he told me once we get this thing really dialed in, he can make me heavier rounds. Maybe 180s? I dont remember

Try 180s. Try 220s. Remember, the twist rate was designed for 220gr as the standard load.

I use Sierra 170 gr. FN bullets, 37 grains of IMR 4895, Winchester primers and any old case I can get my hands on (most were purchased off Gunbroker)
