Default my new .223 at 200 yards

wasn't sure where to post this, but an update on my new weatherby - it shoots great ! here's the picture of my target at 200 yards. the full target and my smallest group once i got it sighted in - not too bad for factory loads - can't wait to try some good handloads........
