[QUOTE="Onewolf, post: 766261, member: 54808"] I bought the rifle to shoot with the local long range shooting club. It's been great for learning and practicing (all prone) but I have subsequently discovered that for their field matches they always have a number of non prone shots and this rifle seems very unbalanced (barrel heavy) for shooting in unsupported stances. At the last long range practice I was the first shooter at 1000 yds and there was a variable 6-14mph quartering breeze. My first shot at the popper silhouette hit the 6" popper and I was 11-12 on the next shots at 1000 yards shooting the 8"-12" gongs. The other shooters (including 2 of the club directors) did not have better then 35-40% hit rates. That made me feel good. :) I was shooting Hornady A-MAX 140s with 43.0gr of H-4350 and COL of 2.810".
