Its probably been asked somewhere in here but I dont want to go through 944 pages ..
What ammo is everyone using and how far are you shooting? I have a SPR inspired rifle I am shooting out to 600 yards using magtech 77gr. The target at that range is 12in and I am hitting maybe 25% of my shots some days I do better but today was pretty bad |

I also tried Hornady Steel match, Magtech 77OTM, and some Angelfire Reman stuff. https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/43495/IMG_7640-676275.jpg So far the Razor Core has shot 1/2-1" in these rifles. Its been extremely accurate and repeatable in the Larue Rifles I have. Larue UU 18" Stealth Larue UU 16" Stealth PRI MK12 Mod 0 (factory gun) Mutt rifle of dubious parts (all of them came out of my parts bin) 1" is the best I have gotten here 20" barrel Most accurate out of them all is the Razorcore and the least was the Hornady steel match. I picked up all the Razor Core stuff I have for $129/240 in the ammo can. I went to buy more and its $199/can. |

It told me 14moa up instead of 16moa the time before last I was ringing the steel no problem even with a 2moa hold with the wind. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Evile:

Example, I took my new-to-me Mod H upper with a new-to-me Mk4 out last month. Trying to use my old data from when I had a Mod H upper with just the LaRue SPR mount was like 3-4 MOA off on my elevation. I was hitting way low with the same ammo, same barrel length, but different upper/barrel/optic mount setup. I ended up having to adjust 3-4 extra elevation clicks at all distances. Going to go back and look at my setup, but that's the general idea. Practice and repetition is what makes this all natural, and I know I don't shoot nearly enough. Sometimes we overlook something basic in the heat of the moment and it doesn't dawn on us until later. |

Some of the other cutouts were for the different bipod adapter used when it was the ARMS #42 for the Versa-Pod bipod. There was also a cutout for a sunshade on the scope. Other than that the case cutouts were the same. They dropped the sunshade and changed the bipod.

I’ve drawn the mod 0 foam out but the site won’t upload a picture. File too large. Just a blank piece of foam???? Wow. .
Meh. Have to download an app to resize images with iOS it says. Sorry. Not in the mood. Maybe I can get it on Instagram or Facebook. I’ve got it all laid out except for the 3 separate slots in between the upper and lower but right of the Otis kit. I put it on instagram no problem. |

I don't shoot my Mk12 nearly enough... I swapped my SOPMOD stock for an A1 this past week and brought it to the desert today and shot out to around 750m.
I was shooting Fiocchi Exacta 77gr ammo with just as good if not slightly better precision than Black Hills 77gr (I'm getting about 3/4" groups at 100m if I do my part)
