The "Wall of Claim" on this thread page 1 is pretty interesting reading! Have to be careful around here!

I am hoping to give this a try with my Tikka T3 Lite, looks like there aren't any in the Bolt division (there is a T3 Sporter and a T3 CTR). I have shot some small groups from a sled with it but not about to make the claim I can do so slung up prone. Will certainly be a challenge with a 8.5x scope.

My typical range is about 94 yards. If I laser-range find it, and that is included in the post w/ proper MOA calculations is that acceptable? Otherwise I can drive around the lease and try to find an area to safely shoot that isn't our range. I think it is 94 yards because the bench used to be across the road, maybe it wasn't a public road at that time.

Been wanting to enter this for YEARS but finally got around to it while testing my first run of ammo loaded on a progressive.  My goal was to produce cheap, accurate ammo in under 1MOA so I figured this was the perfect time.  It's my coffee can ammo that I can just pump out 200 or so rounds in an afternoon for a full day of fun on steel.  I might create a thread with my setup and lessons learned; if so, I'll come back and edit in a link.

Edit: Here is the link

I'm also exceptionally proud of my humble setup: PSA stamped lower, joe bob handguard, and all.  This barrel is off of my very first AR build and has had several thousand rounds through it (unknown total count).  It was a $200 DPMS stainless barrel.  I shot it without the suppressor, but might try it again suppressed next time (it's a heavy beast of a can and I tuned the ammo for use without the can for good walking around ammo).

In case anyone wants to verify my rear bag was acceptable, I used the standard Midway cylindrical one and had to hold it on end as seen in the photos so it was definitely an added challenge and not my normal rear bag.  I also had a target with staples loose flapping in the wind and an angry black wasp swarming around me, so I was amazed to pull this off.

SPR Division, Chrazy-Chris: DPMS MK12 5.56 Barrel/Young MFG BCG/PSA Receivers/JoeBob Matrix HG/SWFA 5-25/Hornady 75gr BTHP/IMR8208XBR/SSA Brass. 1.049"/.803"/.888"/.766"/.668" = avg .835" = .835MOA

Perfect! At least someone is shooting large frames in the comp. I am waiting for your daughters groups to start showing up.

I didn’t realize how far down the list my entries had fallen. I am working on some precision loads for the Grendel but I am not sure it is the right gun to move me up the board. We will see.

Gotta figure out those flyers.

Nice.  Those PSA SS Wylde barrels are better than a many folks give them credit for.  Not absolutely top tier in accuracy, but pretty close for a nice price.  A great value, I think.

Well, I tried 3 rifles today, my Browning X-Bolt Eclipse Varmint in .204 Ruger, R.A. Target .22lr, and RPR 5.56.

The X-Bolt and RA Target were complete disasters.  

The .23 group is about what I'm used to from this combo.  This was 50 yards, btw.



The X-Bolt has preferred 32 gr Superformance, but I didn't have enough of it to shoot the challenge.

So, since I had a couple boxes of FGMM 40 gr, I started off with that, bottom left, then bottom right.  (And yes, I know the target says RPR.  I got them mixed up downrange.)

I switched to the Superformance after the 2nd group.  Didn't improve things much.  



Sometimes it's the Indian, sometimes it's the arrow.

Now, for the RPR:  Bolt Division with magnified optics (any precision gun)

1st, my backyard range.





RPR in 5.56, Leupold VX-3i LRP 8.5-25, Crosstac rear bag, Magpul bipod, YHM Phantom .30 cal can, Hornady Match 75 gr ammo.

Nice shooting. How do you like the Leupold Scope? I just got the 4.5-14 FFP scope and dropped it on my rifle.

Thanks!!

I like it quite a bit, nice & bright, clear, parallax focuses well.  TMR reticle isn't obtrusive.

And can be had for a decent price, if you're patient and shop around.

I have a 4.5-14 with the impact 60 on an 18" Stealth upper, too, and am seriously considering another 1.

I shot this group last week, 1st ever with the 130 gr Berger .260.

ETA:  I was zeroed with 130 gr Prime.  No adjustments were made.  Needless to say, I was pretty pleased with myself.  



So today I figured I'd give it a try for the MOA All day.  Dismal failure.  







I didn't bother will all the usual pics, because, well failure.  

I'll try again soon.
