Really happy w/ the turn out. I wish I had a better rest for it, but I was working with what they had at elm fork. I don't have any calipers, but it's sub-MOA!!

Great group. I think i would adjust it a half inch left and you should be good.

Come on now, Ryan, you were shooting match ammo! Still, very nice group! Ready to shoot 500 yarders this weekend? We might be able to do that depending on what the others are up to.

Just joking, it's factory ammo. With cheap factory ammo you will see a little more spread than match ammo. Even if that was handloaded ammo it would be excellent shooting. Have to say I like Federal, my gun likes their Walmart $15.99 per box ammo very much. You've shot it so you know.

looks very close to .5"
I've had good groups with 175 grain Remington factory ammo with Sierra Match Kings.
She was only a whiskey maker, but he loved her still.

Went back today and shot a 5 shot group. I had sighted in before w/ handloads, this was shot w/ 168G match SMKs I noticed it was around 1.5MOA left so I adjusted, then shot w/ some handloads and noticed it was 1.5 MOA right. So nothing had moved on the scope at least. Then I got squared up and shot this 5 shot group. Most of the time I shoot 3, but I wanted to see how it fared w/ 5 shots. It's just tad under .75 MOA, but I'll call it at .75 This is w/ the new stock that's posted below in my sig.
