Took the T/C Icon Precision Hunter out today... mounted with the new Nikon Coyote Special.

Here is the end result. I really, REALLY like this gun. :)

Nice group Chris,
Looks like that factory ammo is plenty accurate. Are you still having trouble with the brass or have you started reloading again yet?
I'm trying to think but nothing happens.

Man i was eye balling that precision hunter for months that is one sweet looking gun. I read so much about that gun and then end up buying a less expensive 308 cause i needed money for a scope too. i plan on getting one someday. thanks for the range report

Do you shoot from a bench when you zero? Regardless thats an amazing group. I guess T/C is building some sweet rifles.

Your brother said the same thing. Then I handed him my rifle at night and asked him what he thought. All he could talk about the rest of the night was how bad he wanted my gun. :clapclap:

The coyote special is very bright at night. I love it.

Yep, I've got a Coyote and a Remington R15 on it's way. Had to sell my Ruger SR556 to make it happen (twin to Chris's gun), but it should be here the end of next week. I'm beyond pumped to have a hunting AR again. It's been a while.
