[QUOTE="Alex Wheeler, post: 2237694, member: 101859"] I do shoot a lot of hybrids. For best grouping the seating depth window is about .003". That does not mean they wont shoot well outside of that but they will open up. This is for an average barrel. You really want to tune a long range rifle to peak accuracy, because things are changing. You want to se some of those 2-3" groups on good days so when your tune is off some your still 5-6" hopefully. If you go out and the best you do is .5 moa at 1000, its only going to get worse as conditions change. The farther out you get, the smaller the windows get as well. Thats been my experiance anyhow. I see way too many variables at 1000 to personally want to shoot game at that distance but I still want my rifles to group small :) [/QUOTE]
