[QUOTE="SBruce, post: 650550, member: 21068"] Howdy Paul, One of my thoughts also. The scope is a brand new Leupold VX7L 4.5-18X56 with VH reticle (med/fine crosshair with additional holdover dashes) used on 18X for all shots. This is a $1900 scope brand new outa the box. I've got a brand new/boxed Huskemaw 5-20, or a Leup. MK4 8-25, or a NF 5-22 that i could try, but overall - this is the third scope that has been on the rifle (including the aformentioned NF 5-22) since I first had the gun in my hands. It had the NF on it just prior to sending it back to Kirby. Recent groups shot with other rifles show that the NF is in fact capable of consistant 1/2 MOA groups. Perhaps I should put it back on the gun before any further load testing? The Mark 4 also has shot consistant 1/2 MOA when previously mounted on a custom upper AR-15. Maybe I'll try it, beings it's 25X. This is the best group it's seen [B]@ 200 yds[/B], and an AR has dual recoil, somewhat similar to a muzzle break. What say ye? [/QUOTE]
