[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 848869, member: 10"] Most of the shots were 1/2 moa or less but with the shot that hit the target I will admit that the group size was slightly over 3/4 moa in size so likely 8-9" which in my opinion is plenty good from a 10 lb rifle shooting a STOPPING bullet with a 6x non adjustable scope. The twist on that rifle is a 1-10 from Lilja. The DM system is a Seekins with a 3.900" internal mag box length. Interestingly enough, the throat on my 375 AX reamer is setup to seat the 350 gr SMK to the base of the case neck for an OAL of 3.860". These 350 gr TSX have to be seated very deeply and have a very blunt ogive so their OAL is only 3.570"!!! In comparision, the 350 gr SMK loaded with Magpro averages just under 2950 fps out of this 26" barrel length. Pretty impressive but that's not the bullet the customer wanted to test in this rifle so its not the bullet I shot at long range. Thanks for your kind words. [/QUOTE]
