[QUOTE="GuroChris, post: 1996053, member: 113578"] Actually that thing shot really well for a long time. I have about 1500 rounds through it now. The factory ammo I was using was FGGM 168 smk, Federal Premium Tactical Bonded Tip 168. Which incidentally had the same point of impact all the way out to 400. I also shot well with Military Mk 316 Mod 0 special long range with 175smk bullet. Standard accuracy is between .5 and .75 MOA with those loads. I'm just nearing the end of my supplies of factory ammo so I've decided to jump back into reloading to get good results. My plan for the rifle when the barrel is totally spent is to do something similar to you, get the action squared up and have it made into a switch barrel. "because I can, its good for the local business and 'Murica" Right now I'm working on developing reloading techniques to squeeze the most out of the rest of the barrel life that way when I get it all worked on I can really start shooting bughole groups. That's why I'm picking everyone's brain now. [/QUOTE]
