Any suggestions?I'm grouping about 3" I have a leupold mark ar Scope on a Burris ar mount now I'm using my reloads. Which were better Than the walmart 100 round boxes I was shooting |

You need to see what your rifle likes to know for sure, but I would start by getting some factory match grade ammo. Hornady has a few loads you could try, and see how they shoot with someone who is more skilled than you are. That's not a dig on your skill level, but you need to isolate the rifle as much as possible, and if you are a 2.5 MOA shooter at best, you'll never get an MOA gun to shoot to it's potential with any regularity.
If you try a few match grade loads (45-60 grains.....maybe 69) with a known shooter behind the gun and it still won't group, get with Stag Arms. I've seen one of their 6.8SPC barrels come out crappy and unable to group, so it CAN happen, but it is pretty unusual these days. They stood behind that gun BTW, despite the fact that the owner had tried everything (FF tube, muzzle brake, etc.) trying to get the rifle to shoot. The barrel was replaced and groups shrunk to sub MOA. Saleen |
