Scott'S Rifle

..


Received an Email from my son SCOTT.. He just bought this, used with extras, and lots of Ammo. Its a ,223 Cal. Both He, and his brother shot it, at Valleyhunters Farm, and both Shot 4" low and 2" to the right. Sounds as if the east wind was blowing..

Sounds as if they need to adjust the sights to me.

All depends on the weather. Always did have a windage problem up there on the BIG NOSE Nountain, South of Qswegatchie road any way.. Site in with the wind blowing, then go down into Skank Hollow, along the Knauderack Creek, and no wind, so adjusting Sites is for nothing..

Never had that problem with the 45/70.

Nope.. Part of the Iraquois village was on my Farm.. The Hollow is SKANK.. not Skunk, or Shank.. There is a Skunk Hollow near YOST, We shared our Border with a Mr Sclotzhour. in the other direction, was Wayne Utzig's farm..

OH" yes. I left out Richard Ambridge.. He is the one that stole Dads Deer, and got in a lot of trouble when Dad told the Game Warden to look in the EAR for the other half of his License.. LOL.. case closed...
