[QUOTE="elktaker, post: 1116843, member: 86786"] [B]Range report[/B] I went to the range today and shot were I normally do (last time it was closed so I went to BLM). I shot 5 shot group no sling 1.5 MOA I shot 5 shot group with sling 1.5 MOA (both at 100) That's weird no more improvement with sling. So I investigated causes. When I shot with the sling for the first time I was in a different area in soft dirt and sunk the bipod legs in about 1 into fine gravel/dirt. The range dirt is dry hard and rocky. After anger subside with more poor groups (18 rounds worth) I decide to take my last 4 rounds off of the concrete. group measured 1". 3 were touch and 1 I call high and believe I pushed with my cheek. Looks like sling was giving me a false impression of accuracy. Stilling looking for a new brake and need to reload some ammo up to work on my cheek pressure. Might try a firm cheek weld next. Brakes I have contacted about 9/16x28 JP precision armament m4-72 (think this is the one I would like) Fat B (no response from email in a week and not sure I want it over the others) [/QUOTE]
