[QUOTE="Quicksilver338, post: 3059569, member: 108268"] Only time I've actually grouped this rifle. Usually I'm looking for first round impact location, maybe a follow up. Had some wind, bottom left was a sighter. Adjusted and sent 5 more. 18" plate at 976yds. Across canyon but wind was pretty constant. Another we couldn’t see impacts as the target isn't painted and we didn't have a phone skope, but went 3/3 at 785yds on a 14" circle, slight wind. That was the only time I brought it out in 2023. This is no way to try and make a precision rifle claim, but these are real world results in a hunting type environment. Practical accuracy to take an animal at these ranges as well. This is the testing I do to see if a rifle is ready at a given range, multiple trips with repeatable results. It's fun to talk group sizes, but if I am putting first round impacts, and groups in a kill box on an animal repeatedly, then that's the precision I'm looking for.[ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_7583.jpeg"]553383[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
