[QUOTE="cabelasken, post: 2586093, member: 117774"] Your shooting form has to be perfect when you fire a rifle that weighs less than 7.5 lbs complete and when you get to 6.5 lbs it's 10 times worse. I have a titantium remington in 7-08 and for years i could not get below a 1 1/2 MOA average. I mentioned this to a custom rifle maker and he told me that less than 5% of the shooting public have the ability to accurately shoot a gun this light on the bench, much less in the field. To just prove to myself that the gun is accurate, I've gone to the Caldwell bull bags that support the forend on three sides (remove the front stud) and have now gotten my groups down to 1 MOA. I now only carry this gun in the field where I think my shots will be under 200 yds. [/QUOTE]
