While not my rifle or shooting it, good friend who recently purchased a Long barrel EVO in .22 sent me this group shot at 100 yards with JSB 25.4 RD's .... Very similar that is telling the crew at SKOUT have been busy refining there rifles

Nice Mike! Like Revo said, it's getting gooder!!

I am learning about "free Recoil" for my bag set-up..a little more to it than just plopping the rifle on the rest and shoot
In the photo, you see the silver wheel used for extending the buttpad ..I removed that assembly to allow for a smoother recoil
And filled my bags to be very stiff and rigid.
Had to use a metal bar to flatten the area between the ears so that it was level.
I have heard that it is a hit/miss when getting a rear bag for your set-up..you often buy a few to get the recoil you want
this edgewood bag seems to be working out for me just fine
any tips?
Mike

When I had my Skout I made a 3” wide pcs. Of Delrin in front and a v shaped pcs. For rear. That helps a lot for tracking and no binding.

 

[Peashooter]

This do nothing good for my caliber envy
And i sure as hell can t get .177 to do that, no matter what i shoot
