Hi all.  I just purchased a Bushmaster Desert Camo M4 this past weekend and was wondering what kind of accuracy I can expect from it?  Since I didn't get to try it out yet due to the weather on Sunday down here, I was curious what kind of accuracy you other M4 guys are getting and what ammo you are using?

I was shooting Black Hills 52Grain moly HPBT match (not the greatest load for a 1/7)

The FF RAS MRE/M4 was shooting 1.25MOA at 100yds.

Oh yeah (with its) bushmaster barrel.

A non-match, stock Bushy is very capable of less than 2 MoA.

That's some pretty impressive shooting there FL-AR15!  Wish we had just a 200-300yd. range to shoot at down here although our outdoor 100yd. range is really nice with lots of shooting positions.  

I guess I'm a bit spoiled by my 20" Colt HBAR being able to shoot between 1/2MOA and 1MOA with the right loads.  My goal for my M4 would be 1MOA, but we'll see when I visit the range!

Desert Camo?  Was that a factory option or aftermarket?

It's a new M4 model for this year.  They look even better in person than on the website.  I've still got to take a digital pic of mine and host it somewhere so I can post it.

The colors are actually slightly darker than they appear on the Bushmaster website and have a nice subtle contrast.  I'll post a pic of mine as soon as I can.
