[QUOTE="Thumper_6119, post: 372879, member: 14611"] I need to quit spending money on photography gear (snicker) and get my reloading setup done. (Actually, I more than I need, and I have everything that I want in that dept. Well, I would like some Alienbees, but I am good with my speedlight setup). As much as I enjoy shooting, especially my bolt gun, I need to get off my butt and just get my reloading equipment purchased and setup. That is a VERY nice group!! Damn fine rifle ya got there. What type of glass do you have sitting on it? Here is my bolt gun: [ATTACH=CONFIG]121230._xfImport[/ATTACH] Remington 700 5R in .308. (24" stainless barrel, 1:11.25" twist) Accuracy International AICS stock/chassis VersaPod Bipod w/AI spigot Accushot rear monopod (I use the monopod on the bench, but not when shooting prone) Nightforce NXS 5.5-22 x 50mm w/NP-R1 reticle I don't have any pics of target groups, but the best I have cranked out of it was right at 0.64" (center to center) at 100 yards, 5 shots. It shoots better than I do. I can shoot MOA out to 600 yards, but past that, my groups start to open up just slightly past MOA. I need to shoot more out at those distances and beyond. My buddy can hit 10" groups with it at 1000 yards, but I have not gotten my skill up that far yet. I use Federal Gold Medal Match 175gr ammo. The FGMM uses the 175gr Seirra Match King boat tail hollowpoint projectile, which my barrel is optimized for. It is the projectile that I plan on using once I start reloading. [/QUOTE]
