Smallest group I\'ve shot at 525 yards

It was shot with my new then 300 RUM, 200g AB. 92g H-1000, fed 215, 3.660". Leupold vx2, 6-18 target scope was on it at the time. It measured 1.5" center to center. Dont know what kinda MOA that is, but its pretty good I think for a factory rifle with nothing more then a trigger job and good reloads.

1.3" is 1/4 MOA

Re: Smallest group I\'ve shot at 525 yards

That is a duplication of my best group too. Are you shooting a Sendero 300 RUM? Mine was with a bone stock 300 RSAUM 175 gr SMKs @ 2875 fps, 1.44" ctc at 500m (546 yards). On a side note, sort of, Remington is reintroducing the RUMs and some other calibers in the Sendero II. They bill it as the most accurate rifle they build.

Upgrades coming soon include 20 MOA tapered base, Burris Zee Sig rings, Rifle Basix LV-1 at 12 oz and Brand X Mil-Dot scope.

Congrats again Rem!

Watching those hunting shows is a little like reading Playboy. Those big racks are out there but they're few and far between, easier to spot than to get one of your own, and if you do get one, it usually costs quite a bit to mount it.

I see an amoeba about to engulf an orange.

But it does appear to be a smallish amoeba!

Re: Smallest group I\'ve shot at 525 yards

No, the rifle is not a sendero. Its a laminated stainless version model 700. I debated for a month or so about getting the sendero, but I did not want the weight at the time to be packing a 11 lb gun up and down canyons. I feel I did not sacrifice to much in the accuracy department either. Now, I wished I would have got the sendero, but oh well. Life goes on. I think I zoomed in a little to far, I'll try to post a better pic to make it look more life like.
