Thread: An accuracy challenge

Finally I'm starting to shoot as well as my rifle can.

A 60.03 @ 800 yards in March and a 60.05 at 300 yards in June.
Next challenge - do it more often.

Each square on the e-target screen is 1 MOA.
The 6 ring is about 1 MOA in diameter, the X ring about 1/2 MOA.

I was going to go out skiing today but the weather was crap so I'd though I'd this a crack instead.

This is my standard Rem700 Tac in 233 wearing a HD5 5-25 firing factory OSA (Buffalo River) 55gr Blitzking ammo. All fire withen about a half hour so the barrel was pretty hot towards the end.

5x 5 shot group @ 104m. I thought I'd f#@&%d it up with the centre group which was the last one but it snuck in by less than a mm. Not to bad for factory ammo and a factory rifle!!

Gave the THLR test a go the other week. Pleasantly surprised how I went...

Sweet man what was that with? You would have probably nailed the 1/2 moa one there with that shooting. I plan on doing it tomorrow, got the new paper too with the 100m proficiency test on it as well. Be interesting

Was with the .223 that i've sold Yeah I see Thomas has changed it, will have to print some new ones once I'm back on nightshift

Weather is mint this morning so I got the HMR out to shoot some groups. I thought it would go close as it had grouped very well in the past but I'd never put 5x groups down back to back.
Factory rifle and factory CCI 17gr TNT ammo @ 104m.

Not bad for a rimfire aye!

Nice mate, what scope are you running on this?
Excellent at that range, I am yet to validate on paper at over 100 but have already tipped over a rabbit with one shot at 179m using a slight holdover (guess).

With the weather a bit on the rubbish side, I decided to pop out between showers to the 25m range in the back paddock with the CZ455. It's been ages since I put holes in paper with it (normally rabbits and hares).



Don't think I need to look for different brand of ammo any time soon. 0.6 MOA with hunting ammo.

Yea it's a great wee calibre, I think there would be quite a few factory rifles out there that would be able to do this but as you can see on the target it is effected by wind a lot more than heavier rounds. Only downside to mine is it doesn't like the VMAX as much as it likes the TNT's.

It's just got a vortex diamondback 4-12 bdc on it so nothing flash however it does seem to dial alright although I've never dialed up more than 5.5 MOA with it.

I suck

Yeh, but you shot a magpie at 400 yards with an audience Gibo. A bit different to paper targets

He would have mis dialed his dope. Flinched and the stupid thing flew into the projectile.
No other possibility accepted.
Or did his missus shoot it?
