Any pics of groups? How does it shoot?

Here is the only load dev I’ve done with the rifle. I was using Varget at the time since I was sitting on a bunch of it, so I couldn’t push velocity as high as I’d like with a 55gr. There are a couple of good loads in that chart but I never went back to load dev for this rifle.

I was using regular CCI small rifle primers, mixed headstamp brass, and Midway blem Noslers. Times were tough last summer (still are) and I didn’t want to use the good-good components for what I planned to be a coyote rifle. I ended up using either my SPR or my Grendel all last season and never brought this out to the field. With good components I feel confident saying this is a 1/2 MOA rifle.
