    ARX100 quick-detach barrel accuracy test

    Premature. Not useful.

    Not to be mean, but is there an actual point to this? It's not a machine gun, so why would we harp on replicating accuracy from a QD barrel?

    $1950 MSRP is not an arguing point - they sell for as low as $1200.

    The biggest problem that I see with your analysis is the use of the R1 to conduct your accuracy test. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the R1 is a 4 MOA optic - about 4" at 100 yards. That introduces a significant degree of variance in addition to the ammo which is 2-3 MOA.

    Repeat this with a quality 10X optic and match grade 75 grain ammo so that the glass and load do not become a limiting factors.

    Also, stop saying "proved."

    I like my rifles like my women - short, light, fast, brown, and suppressed.

    I have nothing else to add. Thank you my brother.

    Beretta's stated standard for accuracy for the ARX100 is 4 MOA with quality ammunition when fired from a machine rest. This essentially means that if the rifle shoots a 4" or smaller group at 100 yards with any ammunition from a machine rest, it is in-spec and goes out the door.
    Yeah, your original post does a horrible job of explaining this.

    I'm going to go with Beretta actually being right on this one. Show us some pictures when you get your hands on an appropriate optic.

    I pride myself in my ability to read, even when people use big words. He's not being obtuse, it was a painful read... structure and content. Just sayin'.

    I'm afraid that's my best. I appreciate your honest assessment- I'll take it to heart.
