Stege Ballard range results

Took the Stege to the range for the first time today. Shot it with Lapua Center-X and Midas. It liked Eley Black Box best. Had a Lyman STs 20x mounted. Puffy cross wind at 100 yds.

Ballards may be weaker,
but they sure are neater!

That's fantastic shooting! Not an easy rifle to shoot off of the bench. Did you use a sled?

No sled. Just a front rest and a rear bag.

Did you use a 200 yard target?

That wind is tricky. Looks like you had some perty good puffs.

With a .22 it doesn't take much. A couple of the shots I held off to compensate and the shots went right where I aimed.
