The first time I ever shot one of my Swedish m96' s, I used rem corelokt factory loads. I pulled the first shot because I wasn' t used to the trigger, but the next 4 shots went within 3/4" at 100 yards. this rifle hasn' t any problems repeating this kind of performance with corelokt ammo, its usually my eyes that are the limiting factor- probably could shoot even better if the rifle were scoped.
