Range Report Can't believe this happened... Whats the best group you've ever shot?

[momoshooter]

May be once in a lifetime, maybe a divine gift on my birthday.

5 shots, 100 yards. I had 4 to start and fired one more to make it five.

Does anyone out here do this on the regular? What's the best group you have ever shot?

 

[tnichols]

5 in a hole is nice. Good shooting. I’ve had a few groups go into the 1’s, but I certainly can’t do it consistently. Typically I’ve found that crazy accurate groups like that are in the low node, and I push on looking for a bit more MV. YMMV.

 

[308Gunner]

I have done that once with a 308, I have shot out 2 308 barrels a 1 6.5 so yes it happens.

 

[steve123]

A few 3 shot groups but never a 5er like that one so far.

3-4 groups of 5 in the ,1's.

That's an exceptional group!

 

[acudaowner]

great shots , now you just have to do it again till you can do it all the time use the force luke ...

 

[TIMMYTOY]

I do it all the time it’s easy! Then I wake up hahaha

 

[ForgeValley]

Here is my best AR group, shot 2 days ago with my 16" LMT .308. 5 shot group. Prime ammo, and no I don't do it regularly.

 

[65shootmoor]

I had a sweet 1/8" center-to-center, 5 shot group until I shanked the 3rd round. Got 2 staked onto themselves at 400 once, too. Seems like it always happens when I'm not trying to do it.

 

[Carlos Danger]

5 in 2 at 100 is my best so far..

 

[kindabitey]

The only way I can do that is with a sharpened grease pencil

 

[blbennett1288]

Factory barrel with factory ammo. If I do my part easily a 0.2-0.3MOA gun. Id say 1/4 or 1/5 will look like this. The other 3/4 or 4/5 are 0.3-0.5MOA.

 

[HogsLife]

I shoot 4 round groups like that all the time........and then I shank the 5th one out and turn it into a .5” group.....?

Good shootin man ??

That’s what the “dime for size reference” is for. To cover that damn flier.

 

[Pusher591]

I’ve never shot a group that small for 4 or 5 shots but I one time I did put 3, 5 round mags through a hole that measured inside of a quarter.

..... Well, I’ll never trust another shot group with a coin in the image.....?

 

[RTH1800]

.204’s are often stunningly accurate. Good shooting.

 

[Expert684]

My avatar, 5 shots at 200 yards. Right at 1/4”. Best I ever shot was .180 at 200 yards. Seating depth what got me dialed in!

 

[shoobe01]

I think my favorite random bit of surprising accuracy one was still this. Doing 3 shot groups to get the zero down solid on a 5.56 carbine at 200 yds range. Solid performer, but not a precision rifle, shooting pretty whatever ammo, with an RDS and 3x magnifier, prone but monopoding the mag, no bags or anything.

This is not representative of the gun, the ammo, or my ability to shoot. I mean, check out all the other damned pasters. But it happened.

 

[dustingaunder]

I often make tiny 4 shot groups and get excited and shank the 5th. Here’s my most recent. .24” to .63” with one pull of the trigger.

 

[65shootmoor]

Just this morning, the flyer reared it's ugly head. It was going so well, too. Flyer was 3rd fired, so at least I tucked them back in line. There are 4 in there.

 

[MK20]

1.5 inches at 700 yards. 5 shots. I was just screwing around checking drop on a new load for my 308. The guy spotting for me said “Don’t change a f****ng thing about that load.” I agreed.

 

[Ledzep]

Recently with my 300 PRC. 9 of the 10 are inside .450ish.

What brass are you using?

 

[Ledzep]

Hornady. Keep it inside listed book loads and the stuff lasts 10+ firings.

 

[clcustom1911]

6.5CR with 147 ELDm's. That was the best. Most everything stays about .5MOA

 

[ShipAhoy]

7.215 inches at 1000 yards RPR 6.5 Creedmoor.

Now that is impressive, the vertical especially. Looks to be under 3-3.5" vertical. Very, very nice.

I really gotta do a paper match soon.

 

[65shootmoor]

I really gotta do a paper match soon.

I wish I had more local. My home club is supposed to do a 1,000 yard match monthly but it always gets cancelled.

 

[ShipAhoy]

There are two matches for 1,000 yd and 1 mile benchrest competition at TVP on July 20th.

I'm probably gonna hit the Burbank Rifle and Revolver Club for their 600 yard match.

 

[RRG]

6.5 Creedmoor, load testing on the 100 yard range, rested on a bipod and rear bag.

 

[2Drahts]

1.51” @455 yards was my best. Factory Sendero 300 RUM with 215 hybrids

 

[Steel head]

My 260 with 147’s
5 shots at 100yards.

Same 260 shooting 142smk’s
5 shots at 300 yards.

 

[DAVETOOLEY]

No pics but a few in the zeros .0-- , many in the ones .1-- I think the best was an .068" All 5 shoot groups. Shot a .168" @200 10 shot group.
best at 1K 2 5/16" for 5 shots. Backed up with a 3" group. Should have kept the rifle. Many under 5"
Best 10 shot @ 1K 4.322" World record for about 6 years.
The wind blows them out and the wind blows them in.

 

[Kbh]

1125 yards with my AIAX 308 shooting Federal GMM 185 Bergers... it was a good day

 

[skyrep]

now to take it out further

 

[OneMoreNoMore]

Shot this with my 308 and factory 167gr. Creedmoor Sports at 100yds. Couldn’t believe it when I saw it through the scope. It’s only 3 shots but my suppressor was heating up and starting to cause mirage.

 

[maverickasu]

Somebody gona post a screamer from a bench rest match now haha

 

[HogsLife]

Just got my 12 year old daughters 1st rifle built and got a chance to take her to the range the other day. It’s a 6.5CM on an Origin with a 16.5” Proof CF. Prefit Barrel work done by Ern @ Altus. After getting it sighted in for her, she proceeds to show her dad how it’s done fire 3 shots at her 100 yd target and lays down a .281” group. ? I’ve been training her for awhile now on my Rem 40x 22LR but this is the first time she’s put rounds down Range with a center fire. Factory Hornady 120gn ELDM’s. She’s a little hammer. Proud dad here ?

 

[Batemanb12]

It sure makes you feel good when you can shoot a one hole group. This just goes to prove that the primary limitation of accuracy is the shooter...

 

[260284]

Two 3 shot groups out of my Tikka 22BR just before I shot a ladder. I was useing pulled bullets that had been seated with the wrong stem. I was trying to get on clean paper before the ladder, the first 3 went in the 3" dot, dialed .5 mil left and shot the smaller group. If I had seen how small they were, I would have not shot the ladder.

402 yards

 

[sixtyfournmor]

I did a 3 shot with 65SGK's a few yrs ago out of my 20" AR, but still not quite as good as your 5 shooter. But I was a proud muther.

 

[Genin]

I am not capable of better than .25MOA. I have done that multiple times with my hand loads but a true one hole 5-shot group....only in my dreams so far.

Good shooting!

 

[Pvt. Joker]

This is the best I've ever did with a Savage FP10 .223 at 100 yards back in about 2005. 69 grain HPBT Sierra, 24 grs. H335, Win case, CCI primer off bench with bipod.

The next pic was one I did this morning with my Rem 700 M40 clone in .223 at 100 yards. 69 grain HPBT Sierra, 23 grs. H335 ,Win Case, CCI primer. I'm still developing the load. I don't use a bipod anymore just a my old buttpack with a towel in it off a bench.

I'm no where near where you guys are .
My Rem ain't no tack driver ...............yet, but I think

I'll keep her.

Here are some of my best groups coming from a Tikka Tac A1 in 6.5 Creedmoor. I'm currently on the 2nd barrel, a Patriot Valley Arms shouldered prefit.

These are obviously cherry picked groups, however - I have LOTS of groups in 0.2-0.3 MOA range. When I do my part with the marksmanship fundamentals, this rifle definitely stacks shots unbelievably well.

 

[ShipAhoy]

I improved my five shot benchrest group size at 1000 yards with a 6.677 inch group.

 

[Tucker65]

I had a bolt action 50 BMG built in a Bat action that shot really well. The hardest part for me was not flinching from the muzzle blast my brain knew was coming. First group was @ 200 yards. Second group was testing that load @ 1000 yards. If the wind was better that day @ 1000 that group could have been awesome.

 

[Centuriator]

Here is my best AR group, shot 2 days ago with my 16" LMT .308. 5 shot group. Prime ammo, and no I don't do it regularly.

Dang...very impressive, congrats.
