snipershide 6 groups of 5 rounds - 30 round shootout.

OH!!!
Well if i took my 6 best from this shooting i would have 1.101" center to center. Not a sub MOA hunting gun ..Yet

For hunting it has never failed me though.

Even at 211 yards i bet that many rounds i will screw it up.

I did some measuring and i shot 15 winchester rounds and 30 lapua rounds.
The lapua was new brass and fps spread was 50 and winchester brass spread was 36fps.
Time to clean brass and guns.

If you were still shooting at 211 yds then 1.101 would be just over 1/2 MOA...... 1" spread would be 1/2 MOA and 2" spread would be MOA at 200 yards... MOA is 1" at 100 yards 2" at 200 yards etc.

I get that. You said you had zeroed at 211 yards, but you shot at 100 and feel like you get better groupings at 200? Hell, shoot it at 200 and see how it goes. I dunno... I'm a moron who can't hit ****, so what am I talking about? lol

Finally got around to it. Just went out and shot the 6 groups below at 100 yards. And the pic of the rifle was taken at the same time (how it was setup when I shot the 6 groups).

M1A Scout
Viper PST 2.5-10x FFP
150 gr. Federal American Eagle

Nice, man!

:thumbup3:

So .460MOA was your best. I'm reading that right?

Thanks! Yes sir. I need to buy some match grade stuff or start rolling my own to make it even tighter. Also, a bipod and/or a rear sand bag might help too.

I cant believe American Eagle is capable of shooting under an inch from an M1A! Thats pretty consistent for factory ammunition.
