[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1346279, member: 12995"] Thanks. I shot that with shots number 76 through 100 fired out of my new 700 5R Milspec .308 Win. Took about 50 shots to get the barrel broken in and settled, and then about another 26 shots of playing around. Those 26 shots were so consistent and accurate in separate 5-shot groups, that I decided to shoot the last 24 rounds I had loaded up into 1 big group, as a hot-lap (no breaks). And if I hadn't tried to get greedy and shoot out all the orange (the one shot that I pulled to the far right middle of the group) it would have been under 1.000". Here's a bigger picture of it... Also, I accidentally wrote down the group size without subtracting .308 for the bullet diameter, which makes it officially measure 1.286". [/QUOTE]
