[QUOTE="GBA1776, post: 1107338, member: 20522"] I dont have any 5 shot 5 group targets, I usually group 3 shots. But I accept the challenge and will go out and try. Personally I find that 3 shots removes human error better than 5 shots, I usually group 4 super tight and then "the pressures on" to get that 5th shot in and I pull it a little. So I have very few .5 MOA 5shot groups. not because the gun isnt capable its me I do have some targets with 3 shot groups I shot last weekend 1 group is .187!!!! center to center the others are .343 .289 .461, and the last was a called "flyer" group of .892 I was using Black Hills 5.56 77gr SMK at a surprising 2800-2815fps measured with a magnetospeed chronograph (love that thing) And my scope is a Vortex Viper HST 4-16x44 Ive got an SWFA 3-15x42 on the way. My gun started life as a Bushmaster XME2S carbine I got a Rock River ATH upper Stainless wylde chamber 18" heavy profile .950 under handguard and .750 after gas block I was using a Jard "3.5#" trigger, that really pulls at 5.5# with some creep. I just got a Hiperfire 24C trigger and its miles better its truly a match trigger. I expect much more consistent group size. The rifle is surely capable, the old trigger and the meat bag shooting it are in question. [/QUOTE]
