Well my 308Win, SA M700 built by HATECA is awesome. I just finished finalizing the load development for this rifle and I must say I am pleased. Out of the shoot I posted a .501 MOA group the day I got the rifle. (with a real hot loading)

Today I completed the Load Dev with a good note. Here are the 100 yd targets that were showing the best promise which is a seating of the 175SMK at 2.199 to 2.202 (the best being 2.199) from base of cartridge to top of projo's bearing surface. At 400 I had no photo to show but was hitting a 1.5 inch wide 88gram CO2 canister that would explode on contact.

All that from a Falcon Menace 5.5-25x50 Scope. I hope to hone the skills down some more as I am an open sight shooter with training, and these groups are 325 and 335 rounds from a scoped rifle for me.
