If he can't hold half that group with a plain Jane 700 bolt then he wouldn't do anything of the sort with an AR with an unmagnified optic.

Not bad performance at all on your part.

That's 10 shots at around 1.5 MOA with a chrome lined barrel, Aimpoint, and M855.

(He was shooting a Remington 700 in a hunting configuration). He begrudgingly admitted that he would be hard pressed to shoot the same group with his bolt action. Another convert to the "dark side."

Let this go to show that if you do your part, a standard AR in this configuration can and will perform...so long as the driver does his part.

That place has some good prices... Their 338 and 50 seems pretty good too. I haven't bought any for a while, but I paid a lot more for Lake City last time.

I was surprised how accurate the xm193 was in my 14.5" BCM barrel considering how my SR15 handled it.

nice group you got there! i need to take mine out to the range soon! starting to develop an itch!

What can be quite amusing is when everyone walks downrange and they realize the groups they are shooting sitting down, using a sandbag with a bolt action are roughly the same size that a good shooter with AR can put together.

Would that not be a good shooter with an AR vs a mediocre shooter with a bolt gun? Meaning, a good shooter using a good bolt gun using decent ammo shooting from sitting/bag at 100 yards should be making mighty tight groups yes?

ammunitiontogo.com has winchester m855 (but $.10 more a round though) anybody have any info to compare Winchester vs IMI. also what is the highest grain I could shoot out of a 1:9 (or more like highest i should shoot).

Got two cases of IMI 193C about a year ago. I am very satisfied with this, I don't see any advantage of the 855C for range purposes(feel free to advise). I have also made many purchases with Wiedners over the years and have been satisfied with their prompt and reliable service.

Excellent group! What is really funny is that M855 is pretty much the LEAST accurate of all the .Mil ammo. So imagine what that group would have looked like with some better ammo and a powered optic!

For those are not aware, Colt makes some of the most accurate (combat grade) barrel on the market. We consistently see 1.0-1.5" groups out of them and .50-.85" groups out of the 6940.

I did not realize that the 6940 was capable of such precision. That is right up there with Noveske.

I ran the target out to 100 yards.


I have never seen a 100 yard indoor range, thats impressive!
