sub moa @100 - invisiman - 11-18-2012 Had a chance to go to the range yesterday. My second group @ 100 was a little over .25 moa. I was pumped. Best group I have ever shot with any rifle! Much less a 16 inch tube. At 200 my best group was 1 1/2 inch. The rifle ran great. I just need to practice. I did not have time to shoot @ 300. I will post a picture of the group when I get a chance. I would like to thank Alexander Arms for such a fine cartridge and rifle! sub moa @100 - LRRPF52 - 11-18-2012 Sounds like your barrel is a good one. Looking forward to your pics. sub moa @100 - kamrr4437 - 11-18-2012 pics sub moa @100 - Deezil - 11-18-2012 awesome, at the longer distances, for me anyway, its harder to get a super tight group because the targets I use have such a small center and lines on them, the cross hairs cover too much. sub moa @100 - Von Gruff - 11-18-2012 And that the problem for many shooters - using a target that is not "best" for the reticle and distance. Have a look through some of these and you will find a suitable target for your particular needs. http://gunloads.com/modules.php?name=gallery2 http://www.glockfaq.com/content.aspx...ck_FAQ_Targets http://www.mytargets.com/ http://www.tnoutdoorsmen.com/targets.htm http://www.targetz.com/ http://www.reloadbench.com/pdf.html http://www.varmintal.com/atarg.htm http://www.beartoothbullets.com/misc/targets.htm http://www.airgunsmith.com/target/free_targets.htm http://www.airgunsmith.com/target/free_targets.htm (five pages, click pages on bottom portion of screen) http://www.gun-shots.net/free-printable-targets.shtml (supposedly a link to all targets on the web) http://www.huntingcircle.com/targets.php http://www.hwsportsman.net/CompTargets.html http://www.tackdriver.com/targets.htm (page of pdf files but no pictures) http://www.waterproof-paper.com/targets/ http://www.bobdbob.com/~deneb/doc/targets/ (no pictures but they have the US Military M16 sight target) http://wisconsinvarminters.com/targets.html http://www.tuffsteel.com/Targetspg2.html http://www.kermitairgunclub.com/targets/ http://www.mcw-tech.com/TargetExpress/ (a downloadable target generator - 14 day trial period) http://www.ammoman.com/targets/targets1.htm http://target.workz.us/ http://www.kermitairgunclub.com/targets/ (Not pdf's but Jpg's that you can scale to your paper size) http://www.kermitairgunclub.com/targ...ages/koala.jpg (HaHaHa!!) sub moa @100 - davidj - 11-18-2012 [quote=Von Gruff]And that the problem for many shooters - using a target that is not "best" for the reticle and distance.

Dave sub moa @100 - invisiman - 11-19-2012 Here is the tight group I was speaking of. I have not loaded the groups at 200. I will when I get the chance. I am proud of this with a 16 inch tube. [attachment=1781] I had a group close to this with my old O3A3 Springfield, but not quite this tight. sub moa @100 - invisiman - 11-19-2012 I forgot to mention this target is the Larue target with the 1/4 grid. I like to fill in the middle of the target ( 1 inch box, 4 squares) with a black marker. I pulled right off the website. Now I want to upgrade my scope to at least a Vortex 6X24X50 FFP MRAD. I think this is the best one for the money next to a Nightforce. It will be a while before I can do this..... Thanks Von Gruff for the target info. I will check it out. sub moa @100 - invisiman - 11-19-2012 I keep forgetting things... I thought it was interesting that I was sighted in around 1 1/2 inches high at 100 and at 200 it was right on the money. I thought it would of been lower than that with a 16 inch tube due to velocity. sub moa @100 - LRRPF52 - 11-19-2012 Very nice. What groups are typical for your carbine to group at? Looking forward to the 200yd groups. sub moa @100 - invisiman - 11-19-2012 Chieftain, I have only shot it a couple of times. Once with the new trigger. I am not sure what is typical yet? Hope to average 1/2 MOA @100 I guess. I know the new trigger really helped my out. My shooting buddy was with me. He taught me to hold the trigger back for a couple of seconds after each shot. I started doing this at 200 and started improving. Next time I want to shoot some 123 Scenars. I have a feeling these will be better a longer ranges.
