Hey all,

Just wanted to post up my results from hitting the range on Saturday to zero my recently worked up Remington 700 SPS Tactical AAC-SD. Dropped it into a Manners T4A mini-chassis stock and topped it with the Bushy ERS. Sitting on an Atlas v7 bipod. I zero'd using American Eagle M1A (168gr OTM) and I won't post those pics (my groups sucked....my friend shot better groups). I will post a pic of the last 5 shot group of the day using SWA 175gr SMK match:

Sub moa plus the two flyers (those are 1" squares). I'm pretty sure it was me pulling the shots, but I'm still pretty new to precision shooting. Still, I'm pretty happy with that group!

Thanks to the whole crew here for all the useful information that I've been able to get and will hopefully help me progress into a better shooter in the future.
 
Not bad for your first time. Any plans to reload your own? Reloading cuts my groups in half over premium factory ammo.
 
Yup. All I need now is powder and primers which I should be picking up soon, then I'll be doing some load development.
 
+1 on rolling your own. I have the same rifle in a B&C medalist stock with a timney trigger. I get consistent 5 shot groups in the .4's and a 10 Shot group at .5".
 
Get a good trigger. My groups with my 5r went from moa with fgmm, .5moa with my handloads and now with the timney trigger on a good day I can get damn near alk 5 stacked on each other. Looks like youve got a good starting point but we need pics of the whole gun now.

I know I know.....my bad for not providing the gun porn.....LOL

I'll get some pics up later when I get home.
