[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 771078, member: 48043"] I've seen a good amount of factory ammo that is moa capable but little that will do significantly better than that. My savage striker 22-250 pistol uses the 45 grain bulk win white box load to do 5 shot 1" 100 yard groups. I've used the Rem 300 rum swift tipped bullets 180 grain loads to put three in an inch at 100. Both guns will do better with good handloads. Pmc makes some good ammo for larger rifles if you can find it (their 300 win ammo was awesome(1/2moa for 5 shots) years ago when my father used some 150 grain stuff in his old bdl). My experiences with factory ammo are rather limited though, and I almost consider it sacrilegious to use factories unless I'm burning them up for brass as I do in my 405 win or 5.56 nato. [/QUOTE]
