went and shot a grouping tonight. you could cover the 3 shots with a quarter. 2-2.5" high at 100 yards and maybe .5-1" right. had i more time i would have nudged over left a bit to me DEAD CENTER but i have a feeling this will do on my bear hunt tommorow and my deer hunts for the next month.

btw-they killed a 400lber and a bit smaller one today. can't wait!

Good luck on the hunt Model 70.

It appears that you will be getting a ton of experience this year.

Regarding the flinching from recoil, I used to have the same problem with my .300 Win. Then I added weight to that rifle and the rest of my rifles and figured out that my 3.5" 12 gauge recoiled more than the .300 Win which really made me feel silly about the flinch because I shoot 3.5" shells out of the shotgun without a problem, with the exception of turkey loads which kill me. I think the flinsh with the .30's was all a mental thing of me being scared of the rifles because my father had always told me that they would break my shoulder since I was 5 years old.
