[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1113231, member: 10291"] My views are quite similar to MMERSS. Getting a good group of sub .5 MOA represents only half of the work. Once I'm grouping at 100-200 yards, I spend time to: -Understand the repeatbilty of the velocity and ES which I look to get under 12FPS -Clean, cold, and warm bore accuracy. Dirty cold and warm bore within .25MOA of zero. -Temperature stability. I hunt from 80 to 0F, and altitudes from 350-5000ft. -Ability to maintain zero. If I'm off more than a click or two at different locations, something is wrong(with me or the rifle). This is a tall order which generally means a good barrel, and a supply of the same lot for brass, powder, bullets, primers, and time but I think it's well worth it. My goal is to get this performance for at least 1000 rounds with my hunting rifles. [/QUOTE]
