[QUOTE="Darryl Cassel, post: 40848, member: 34"] Brent You said; Is a consistant 1 MOA rifle out at 1000 yards considered very good, in favorable conditions? What is considered very good? -------------------- Hunting and paper punching is two different animals here if that's what you were asking? You mentioned 1K BR shooters to begin with. For the 1000 yard benchrest shooter, a 1 MOA rifle is not very good at all regardless if it's 3, 5 or 10 shots and in favorable conditions. A 10" agg won't win anything at the end of the season plus, that's for either 5 or 10 shots strings and not 3 shots. If only shooting three shots at a paper target at 1000 yards, most "any" decent BR match rifle would/will produce 1/4 to 1/3 MOA most everytime out at 1000 yards but, we don't shot 3 shots. On the other hand, if your LR "hunting" at 1000 yards and you hold a 1 MOA at that range, consistantly, with 3 shots, then that's good enough to get into the kill zone of most any big game animal your after. We are now back to a 10" group with 3 shots. By the way, that package went out yesterday. Later DC [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
