Impressive. What forend rest and what buttstock rest did you use? What is the diameter of the bullseye ring?

I always liked the KM77 mark II VT rifle.
I used one when I was a part time pro too shooter back many moons ago. Sat very stable and that trigger was one of the best to adjust yourself.
I'm soft and I don't care. :dance:

I'll second that, the 2-stage trigger is very nice for target work. Front rest was Wichita tripod + sand bag at rear end. Target was inspired from bench rest and home drawn using Powerpoint. Being a hunter used to sight in to strike above POA (max point blank range), I'm disturbed by shots hitting below POA, so I turned the target upside down. Aiming square is 2x2 cm (.8x.8") and bullseye's diameter is also 2 cm (.8 "). I'll add that, apart from the match bbl., the rifle was glass bedded by a true artist.
