It sounds like your shooting went well,with two sub 1/2 moa groups out of three.Extremely good shootingfor a factory rifle.I look forward to seeing the groups.I only shoot three shot groups myself since my cartridges are such high capacity and heat up the barrel so much.I do however count all shots and don't call fliers since they average out over several groups anyways.
As for the pictures of the stainless a-bolt,they were taken on the coast of alaska where the conditions are extremely harsh.I find the conditions in the mountains very harsh as well and guns really get tested.Most rifles never see anythingclose to those conditions,but mine have on several occaisions.That is the reason that I only use stainless synthetic rifles.
