[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 796776, member: 5302"] Sully says I should keep believing Win. 70's do as wall as those others. Sully, you obviously do not know what accuracy levels they've had at 1000 yards with magnum cartridges since the 1960's. Like all the single shot or other popular benchrest actions such as those in this thread's title used by so many folks these days, they all do no better than staying under 3/4 MOA that far away. Sure, once in a while a tiny inch or two 5-shot group ekes out, but all the rest are up to 6 or 7 inches. Check out the group agg scores noting the largest group shot in them; if you can find out how bit it was. Then you might understand. If only a single 5-shot group under 2 inches is all you care about, I've done that at 1000 yards with a .308 Win. from a Win. 70 action, no less, slung up in prone using metallic aperture sights. Just once. No way will I claim that happens all the time. 'Twas just lucky it happened once. [/QUOTE]
