Accuracy of 1/2" is equal to accuracy of 1.125" under hunting conditions. Within reason, don' t get carried away with accuracy unless you' re varmint hunting.
Vapodog...I agree. Real small groups weren' t really the goal...just got lucky I guess. This gun (I believe) is just a shooter. Most of it' s groups were sub moa, and it even shot factory Rem core locks at sub moa. IMO, it' s nice knowing the gun shoots great...gives confidence to the shooter...but it takes away the excuses
Thanks for the replies. I agree, shot placement is the key...no doubt. However, as we all know...things can and do happen. Lack of penetration is what I am concerned with as well. I personally am a little shy of using a bullet that has a rep for exploding upon impact. I have heard some folks give these bullets alot of praise, but I think I' m more apt to lean towards something that drives right on through...no matter where the hit. Most of the shots will be under 100yds, probably more like 50-75yds avg. Hmmmm...I guess we' ll see. I haven' t asked him if he is going to try some different loads. Heck the way the first loads he tried work, it' s liable to shoot everything good.
