Same rifle but with her 30/06 barrel and a 1.5 to 6 Zeiss.

Without a doubt the most accurate and versatile rifle I've ever owned.

Cheers

Cool. What is the MOA of these targets, from highest to lowest and average? Thanks. Interested, as that gives a good indication of accuracy.

Good stuff. Well done.

Cool one can now get a .22 RF Blaser. Good for practicing. Same rifle, trigger, even scope or similar scope perhaps.

On the 50 yard target. All groups were 10 shot.

Top Row, left to right:

Eley Match .58" , Eley Tenex .76"...the 2 shots outside the hole I called as flyers. Eley Club, 9 into .86" ...10 into 1.27 inches. Flyer was my fault.

Bottom row. Left to right.

RWS Match. .97", Winchester Power Points 1.28 inches, sighting target.

On the 100 yard target. 10 shots into 2 inches, 9 shots into 1.1 inches. I was responsible for the flyer.

Agreed---something to be said about being able to use the same rifle for no matter what the game or sport you chose to do..

Great job and thx for posting..
