That is an excellent group for a hunting rifle and evidence of good load development and shooting. However, you do understand that group--even if it was a 5-shot group--would be about dead last in a...

Please don't think that I am disparaging the kind of shooting you are doing. It is a different game than LR BR. The fact that you have settled on a 160 Accubond helps make my point that ultra high...
