    Also try some standing shots 100 meters, I get 50 mm that's all you need if there`s no tree for a rest

    The best that I can manage so far is a 30mm spread at 100 yards with my 308 off a bipod.

    50mm group from a standing position at 100m? I'm impressed.

    I missed a hind a while back so thought I needed some practice, 100 odd rounds threw the pee rifle standing snap shots at 50m resulted in an oval group around 5"x 8". fuck knows why I missed.

    VC don't beat yourself up. The answer is simply that some times shit just happens.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Or try this here.

    600 yards, 0.349" group, benchrest.

    Consider this, one MOA at 600 yards is 6.282 inches. So Rodney’s 0.349″ group works out to 0.055 MOA. That’s what a mid-zero group at 600 yards looks like boys and girls….
