My friend bought 4 Tasco 6-24x40 Target/Varmint scopes on a deal from Amazon for $29.97 a week or so back. He kept two and gave me two. He is always telling me that I need to up grade my scopes to more powerful ones. So I the took the Leupold 3-9X40 off my CZ American 452 and put the Tasco on. It tracks well and is clear up to about 22 power and is OK at 24 but not as sharp as 22 and lower. I did a quick bore sight through the barrel and then shot at the center of the target to see where it was. It hit about an inch left of the center line and 2" low at 50 yds. Not terrible bad for looking through the bore and moving the adjusters until it looked good. Then I started shooting some groups with different ammo that was in my box that didn't have any of the higher end ammo in it. The target is marked with the ammo shot and was all shot at 50 yds.Some groups were quite a few shots in them.Top left of center had the most shots fired at 27 shots. Bottom right was 21 shots and center left was 20 shots and left center was 17. I shot all of what was left in the boxes before leaving for home. Didn't want to have partial boxes left in my ammo box. So here is the results if you can get by all the scribbling on the paper. The scope won't stay on this rifle. It is way to big and long and it is to powerful for me. I liked my 3-9 Leupold better.
Target from this trip to the range. The one shot at the top left bull was 1 lonely Aguila round I found in my box. Needed to get rid of it to. The one with the question mark was head stamped Rem. of some kind of target stuff maybe. Probably really old target standard velocity.
Here is the target with dimes on the groups. Some couldn't be covered but most were OK.
