    Optic is a Mueller 8.5-25x44AO mildot on a LaRue SPR-E mount.
    Not in the photo (because I just installed it) is a Battlecomp 1.0 in satin stainless.

    75 gr Privi Partizan Match is what was used on that target.
    Not the best ammo going, but this gun seems to like it.

    I have some 75 gr Wolf Gold Match and 75 gr Hornady TAP training ammo that I want to try the next time out.

    Get yourself some Black Hills "Blue" box 77gr. I ran a box through my SR-15 and was amazed at the difference from standard 55gr.

    Interesting results.

    The BCM RECCE 14 I T&E'd for a recent article in Guns & Weapons for LE achieved similar results with 77 grain Black Hills from the GI profile 14.5" chomeoly barrel from a bipod with 9x optic (.4" best group at 50 yards).

    The more time I spend with quality chrome-lined barrels and good ammo the less interested I become in bothering with stainless.

    Sub-moa with M193, yeah right

    You need to shoot more rounds per group.

    Went in search of some, and G&R was out of stock.

    I'll have to do a little more searching...

    I have a BCM SS410 16" that was Ion-bonded.

    I've tried several bulk bullets that are decent (Privi 75s, MG 55s and Hornady 55s) and mine won't shoot MOA with my best handloads, all weighed to be spot on and with the brass match prepped, using standard CCI #41 primers. 1.5-1.75 MOA is about what I average across multiple 10-shot groups, depending on the day.

    Match caliber rounds will hold 1 MOA. Possibly with better optics or a better shooter, it would do sub-MOA consistently.

    I personally can't imagine pulling off sub MOA consistently with this barrel with M193 or any similar load, though.
