[QUOTE="STL_Shooter, post: 40776, member: 888"] Darryl, Though you and I have gone 'round on this one before, I'll indulge for a bit. My shooting technique is nothing special. I use what most would consider extreme shoulder pressure. I strive to press the trigger, let the thing push me, and watch the crosshairs through the recoil. I do pay attention to the vector of the forces I'm applying at the shoulder, face, grip and trigger - but who's to say I'm doing any of that right... My reloading technique is meticulous - I won't go into the detail here - but it's nothing more than the best benchresters do, and less than some. I will say that my loaded rounds have almost no measurable runout. The only time I've shot groups with it at 1000 is in gusting 8-15 mph winds, and shot 4 5-shot groups that were approximately 6-8 inches in diameter. I've never held close to 1/3 MOA past my pet 600 yard range. At 1000, I consider myself extremely fortunate to have held what I did. I have two young boys, own and manage two information technology companies and serve in a leadership capacity at church, so I have little time to compete. I'm happy to get range time to myself - it's therapy. I'm not a competitive person by nature - I think I know what I am, and am not. I certainly don't need to weave tall tales on the web to make myself feel better - so what I say is the truth as I know it. So I think my rifle and loads are special. S1 thinks it's an honest .25 MOA rifle, I think it's an honest 1/3 MOA. But me? I'm nothing special - and I'm cool with that. [/QUOTE]
