[QUOTE="Hawkeye Pierce, post: 1986931, member: 112455"] There has been a lot of good information on this already. The short answer is no you are probably not going to get any better. Doesn't mean you can't try. With the technological advances in manufacturing, material selection and tuning. The semi auto has gotten incredibly accurate in the distance that matters. Which is within 1000 yards or so, because at further distances the accuracy of the gun holding 1MOA becomes secondary to the shooter abilities of understanding external ballistics ( wind). Inside that distance the ability of follow up shots on "targets ", and being able to stay behind the gun to see your own splash puts the semi ahead of bolt. If you are at 1/2 MOA I say load it up and enjoy, spend the time shooting and less time tinkering ( and that's coming from a guy who loves to tinker). Hope that helps. [/QUOTE]
