is it too much to ask to get a grouping at 200yrds thats has all three rounds touching..... I'm running a R700 kreiger barrel 1:10 twist and I'm using SMK 175....am i asking too much
 
Re: grouping at 200yards

While I don't think you're asking too much, I do think you might want to adjust your priorities. Meaning, if they don't touch at 200 yds, but are inside 3 inches at 600, maybe you don't care about the 200. I say run it out further before you get critical.
 
Re: grouping at 200yards

See what it does at different ranges. That is unless you will only be shooting 200 yds. Good luck

Re: grouping at 200yards

I am holding .5 moa with factory ammo at 200 right now, and with the prelim workup on my hand load, i have been as tight at .35
 
Re: grouping at 200yards

Certainly not to much to ask for a after market barrel. I have a factory Rem SPS 308 that the will avg 1/2 moa at 200.

This put a smile on my face.
