I'm currently recovering from a quadruple bypass--been home now for almost three weeks, it's healing well and the home nurse has been impressed with my good vital signs and bloodwork---the question is, have any of you been in a similar situation or know of someone who has and how many months of healing before sighting in my 30-06 ? I have one of the new brown laminated model 700's and just mounted a new Nikon Prostaff on it, the one that can be calibrated for the type of ammo used [ I like the Hornaday 150 grainers ]--
Tried asking the doctors, but they aren't shooters and are not familiar with recoil---I've got it bore sighted, but am getting antsy about a little range time--two months, three months--? Anybody got some good advice ? John
