    Just picked up a slightly used 2000’s Featherweight in 270. Shooting it tomorrow morning at sunup. Made in USA Morgan Utah around early 2000’s for what I can gather it’s got a Burris Fullfield 3-9X40 scope that’s been sighted in by the gunshop to 100 yards, great looking first rifle!

    After 13 shots to dial in the sight these were a 3 shot group and a 5 shot group at 100 yards.
    This 270 hits the shoulder pretty hard after 20 rounds I feel a bruise coming! First time ever to shoot a hunting rifle and first time using a scope!
    A gentleman at the range (Parker County Sportsman’s Club), named Mark helped to encourage me to adjust the elevation and windage, it worked out well with his advice. Thanks Mark, (if you’re a TGT member).

    Had a great morning!

    Can anybody tell me if these rings are installed correctly? There is 1 labeled under the ring 1M and the other 2M, but which way should they be faced. Backs facing each other? or
    L L. or L _l. I am assuming it's on the rifle correctly as in the picture, but don't know which one mounts front or rear. The rear mount is slightly higher than the front in the pic.
    It cants slightly forward down the muzzle. Confussed!!!!! (see the original pic above).
