| Anybody got any pics of groups shot with Stealth uppers. Preferably 18 or 20 inch uppers. |

What? Dont you have one Harley? Have you never shot a group worth taking a picture of with it? My bad, was thinking "Stealth Test target". Didn't happen to get one with it back then. Yes I do have one, just never done a 5 shot group with it...I mostly just take pics of it with girls firing it..You want a pic of that?

I know this ain't a group. This is from my 16" Stealth at a precision rifle class I took in May. 77SMK 23.1g 8208XBR 100 yards. [ UHFO Stealth 9/2011 ] I've never hit a dime, but I've hit a quarter! Nice shooting!

I have a 18" stealth on order. I see almost all the sealths with bi-pods. Is it heavy where I sould add to my order before it ships? Any suggestions, I seen a few on Larues site but have no idea about bi-pods and what to choose. It's a shame not to use the uppers accuracy to its full potential. A bipod really brings the groups in on my stealth. But it will perform admirably without one. I chose the get the harris bipod adapter so I could change bipod sizes rather than buying the integrated one. My set up is a bit heavier but hey, it's on the bench. |

Those are some really nice groups guys. The dime shot was cool. I saw dates from last year on some of them, are any of the others from this year? The accuracy of these rifles is so regular and repeatable that after a while you just get used to it. Groups that size are the norm and you forget about pictures. |

With accuracy for the Stealth being what is I think I've changed my mind about getting one to swap the barrel into my PTAR. I think i'll just switch back and forth between uppers depending on shooting distance. |

Here's some groups I shot yesterday. I just got the rifle (Stealth 16"), and am trying different ammos to try to find out which it likes. I don't reload, so I got a few different types of heavier match loads to try. I got some Black Hills blue box match re-manufactured 69, 75, and 77gr; and some Hornady 75gr bthp TAP. So far I have had best results with the Black Hills re-manufactured match stuff. The groups here are from the 69gr, but it was shooting similarly with the 77gr. In fact, the scope was zeroed for the 77gr, and the POI is the same. Fed M855 usually puts 4/5 right around 1 MOA with a flyer bringing it to a little over. I am zeroing my ACOG to it for general shooting and carrying on the farm. The Hornady TAP is less than impressive, and doesn't seem to shoot much better than M855. I wish I would have bought the Fed GMM that was sitting next to it. I am anxious to try some of it. Fed M193 seems to shoot about 1.5 MOA with flyers that make it 2 MOA or so. These groups don't necessarily represent the rifles potential, or even mine, but once I figure out which ammo it likes, I can stock up. I am working on my form. It is not as easy to stay steady with this, as opposed to something with a longer heavier barrel. I am also doing most of my ammo testing on a rickety picnic table because the range I use with good benches is usually busy. I like having this one to myself. I just shoot 5 shot groups. Nothing scientific about my measuring. I use a regular ruler and round up to the next 16th to be fair.
Some groups from yesterday: 
And here is the rifle configuration (Optic is Leupold MK4 4.5-14x50 TMR), with the exception of the one group shot with 4x ACOG as I started to zero it:
