It is fall, cold and dry. Just before our scheduled fall thanksgiving hunting trip.We decided to sight in our guns. Nothing is more important that having your rifle’s sights and its bore in alignment. After all what is finding the perfect trophy game when you can’t shoot straight. With me I have my new gun the Mossberg Patriot .308 with a Vortex Scope. I choose this gun because it fit me, I was so excited to shoot it.
We are in the Okanagan Valley today, we travelled into the forest off a logging road and found the perfect place to sight in. Our backdrop was a strong hill right behind our target. A lead sled a good shooting table and chair allowed us to sight in. My vortex scope was sharp and got the job done right. After a few trigger pulls and minor adjustments I was on target.
OK maybe a little off but enough to be able to provide a kill shot of the heart or lungs of the deer I will be hunting tomorrow. After I felt that kickback from the first shot of my gun towards that target in the distance it confirmed my feelings towards this gun; it was perfect.
