[QUOTE="maseh2os, post: 541482, member: 34354"] Ok, so it sounds like I have had my expectations set a bit too high regarding the side by side performance of these rifles. And come to think of it, I'm pretty sure we only have ~150 rounds through them, so for all I know we haven't quite finished the break in period. I have to say I am still a bit concerned about their long range accuracy from shot to shot, when using a mix of once or twice or three times fired brass. It concerns me because we are planning to hunt with these, and thus would like to be able to take any shot within the effective range of the bullet and KNOW where it is going to end up. Looking at a ballistics program though, it only shows a +/-1.5" difference in drop at 600yds when fired 25fps faster or slower than nominal. Should I consider this good enough? Should I worry more about making consistent ammo and becoming a more consistent shooter more than that amount of velocity variance? [/QUOTE]
