I have a rifle for sale in which I included a picture of some of my better targets instrad of stating some moa number.
So what do you say this group is then!! From a .280AI...? I' love to know if I'm looking at this right. Just under moa? -.280??
I have a target I like to bring to the range for people who say "shoot .5 MOA all day"......I've never had anyone clean it. It's 12, 1/2" dots one shot per dot.
You are realistic about your results. If you throw in the "When I do my part" you don't have to count all your shots and your rifle in that reality a .2 moa all day long rifle.Lot of really good points. Guess the bottom line is you have no guarantee unless you are dealing with someone reputable.
After reading all your comments I'm feeling a lot better about my current set up. 6.5x47, Pierce Titanium action, #4 Lilja, McMillan, Timney and Nightforce on Talleys. 130 Hunting VLD, BR4, H4350. Action bedded, rings bedded and locktited. Best 200yd five shot groups I've done with it are .5 moa. Bi-pod and sandbag. Have tried tons of charge weights and seating depths trying to get sub .5. After forking out all that money for it and all these people doing .3-.5 "all day" wasn't feeling satisfied with it. In reality though, the worst loads I've had are still sub 1 moa and my best load has held .5-.6 at 600 yards. Realizing I should probably be happier about that.
My name is Joe. Model 70 pre64 and I approve of all these points! Post pics! Thank you for the tip on that app too! I have a load hovering around .5 for three shot groups repeated four time. Had to wrap up for moving and to save a boxfull for the season.View attachment 106252
Steve's eye is pretty good! I really like Range Buddy app on my phone.....it takes a couple seconds to analyze a group, and you can save them away digitally for reference...... I take any claims with a grain of salt unless I know the shooter. I assume the gun has probably shot one or a few groups that size.....its funny because people almost expect you to fudge.....I've told someone a gun is a solid MOA shooter and they look at you think its garbage, probably a 1.5moa gun in their mind. I have a target I like to bring to the range for people who say "shoot .5 MOA all day"......I've never had anyone clean it. It's 12, 1/2" dots one shot per dot.
