Hey guys,

Posted this over in the bolt guns section, but it's more appropriate here I believe.

Just wanted to post a group I shot recently with the Barrett. 717 yds by mil. 250gr smk, 92.4 gr N165, .030" off lands. Video is of a subsequent group on same target that I will post a photo of shortly. E.S. 2.030". If I am doing the math correctly, that's 0.27 MOA, my personal best!

I'm very pleased with how the rifle is doing and with my progress. Please offer any constructive criticism or mathematical corrections as I've had no formal instruction and would love to improve.

Thanks

You will have a blast with the 98B, mine has around 1800
rounds down the barrel and has been a ¼ to ½ moa rifle with highest respect and accuracy.

We have been able to really stretch it out; I have been running the 300 grain Scenars. Now I am in the process of building a 375 wild cat—375 VM2 to aim on and dabble in the 2000 to 3000 yard area.

Great shooting

Cheers

Here is a wider shot of the target. The upper group is the one being shot in the video. The impact to the left was the last shot and was a correction, not a flier. Had I held the same point of aim it would be very close to as tight as the preceding group below.
