I'll go into detail later on this ordeal.
I finally received my Neptune VIII from PF Tuesday (ordered Jan 5 2017), and opted out of work early yesterday to send some Rounds down range for break in per their instructions, and see what it likes.
I had already purchased a fair bit of ammo from a member here in the Buy Sell Trade section, and used up the "Mixed bag of Amax and SST - to whit I could not identify which was which, so that was the break in ammo.
I shot some 5 round groups, and the two best groups came from American Eagle OTM. Clocking in at 2525 fps at 4800' ASL, I managed to pull these two groups. The more experienced around here will be able to tell what was shooter error since they are a combination of strings.
These do have a different POI from the SST/Amax, who was dialed in hitting just left of center, and equally low.
Shots are at 100y
Neptune Spec;
Barletien barrel, 18" Threaded with Atlas until Omega gets out of NFA Jail
SLR AGB - Dimpled (not by choice)
Sampson Keymod - getting rid of that tube soon for a MI Gen II
NIB BCG
Nightforce 20 MOA Unimount - Lapped and torqued to spec
Hubble Telescope (Vortex Viper PST FFP Gen I 5-24x50 MRAD)
PSA Lower with Geiselle SSA-E
Magpul PRS
Magpul MIAD
