Had about a 20mph wind that day and i'm not the greatest shooter but those last 3 shots make me smile everytime i see them. That was with lapua 155gr scenars.

Here's 300 with berger 175gr BT LRs. Not that great but around 1/2 MOA to MOA.

They do, and I was quoted a very ridiculous price of $2k for it.

Mine is +/- 0.75 MOA at 100-300yds. Has been fine for me out to 500 on steel as well. It likes 175 SMK with 44.5 Varget but I have not been as sucessful with 155 scenars. I am sure it would be better if it had a better shooter behind it.

Remington 5r 308's are very accurate for a factory rifle and can be tuned to be more accurate with handloads. I had one and loved it. The rifle shot very small groups all the way to 500 yards. I now have a full custom 308 with custom action and it blows the remington away but it does cost much more.

under an inch @300. Consistantly has been 1/3 MOA since bedding. At least out to 600, haven't shot it past that. I would have to think #5 out of the cluster was me. The rifle performs. No doubt about it.
