    Generally getting three shots out of four in a group less than 20mm at 100m. Don't think I'd be doing any better.

    Just spent a very pleasant afternoon/evening at the range with GM! Tried about 5 types of ammo and had the pleasure of using his chrony. 168hr Sierra HPBT MatchKing did this at 100m with a dirty barrel (Forgot my cleaning kit):

    Looks like i've found the ammo she likes!

    168gr AMAX was about 0.9 MOA and 150gr SUPERFORMANCE just made it under MOA if I discount a shocking flyer.

    Very happy!

    Yeah, all factory ammo. The photo is with some Australian Outback stuff. Uses the 168gr Sierra HPBT MatchKing projectile. Has some pretty outrageous claims about its "Ballistic Temperature Independence"....but whatever, my gun likes it.

    Looking at their website I'd guess they are using Benchmark 8208.
