[QUOTE="dennisinaz, post: 1680941, member: 40966"] I guess I wasn't clear or there is a general lack of reading comprehension here.The rifle shoots good for 5 or 6 shots after it's cleaned. After that it goes to he11 I've cooled it completely cold between shots, makes no difference. There is no "best " ammo. This rifle belongs to my buddy who has gotten out of hand loading. I do a lot of rifle work do he have it to me to figure out. His groups were worse than mine. As far as 143 ELD-X, I use therm in my 6.5-284, they shoot sub .75 MOA. I can go 50 shots between cleaning. This Fieldcraft won't shoot Sierra or the 120 ELD-M either. My Tikka T3 shoots all the mentioned ammo well under an inch for 5 shots. We don't want a rifle that has to be cleaned every 6 shots. I'm just trying to decide if we get another Fieldcraft or just scrap this and get a Tikka. We really like everything else about the rifle With respect to the the Fierce rifles My hunting partner bought 2 in 300 WSM. Those rifles have never shot a 1" or better group. We even tried the supposed ammo used to shoot the "test" group. Biggest disappointment ever They just sit in the safe. [/QUOTE]
