[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 850302, member: 1521"] Keep in mind the differences between grouping-vs-accuracy and target shooting on animals-vs-hunting. 1/2moa of grouping off a bench might not get it for hunting if your field accuracy with it isn't good enough. In other words, 1/2moa of grouping is not always +/- .25moa of accuracy. For groundhogs I actually need 1/4moa of cold bore accuracy off a bipod. That is 1/4moa from my mark, or +/- .25moa of accuracy. With this, my max range is limited to that capability, and at the moment I have two 500yd guns for GHs. Took a lot of work to get that(more than just load development). [/QUOTE]
