Got my new SASS to the range yesterday. Shot some LC '05 M80 ball to get on paper with new Burris XTR-312 mounted. Cleaned barrel and shot 2-5 shot groups with handload consisting of: LC 05 Case with 41.5 grains H4895 with CCI #34 primer topped with Nosler Custom Comp 168gn. HPBT.
I did not break this barrel in because after first 10 rounds, I saw virtually no evidence of copper fouling.
Results less than impressive with handloads.
First group at 100 yards measured about 2" and 2nd group was 1.25". (got dark and had to leave)
Not interested in factory ammo...just handloads, please.
Will give a full range report when I get this gun shooting where I think it should be- 1 moa or less. I'll shoot at 600 when I get it printing well at 1 and 200 yards.
