brown dog Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Took the 4T out for a play on Saturday; drove me mad trying to get a decent group; tried various permutations of rested and then finally found it seemed to do best slung as per the pic and unrested. Then dug out the remnants of an HPS ammo box loaded with SMKs (and sold in such shocking condition that I swore I'd never buy HPS again - it looks like ammo that's been at the bottom of the sea for a decade and then dredged). ...and it put 5 rounds into the group shown at 100yds. How did we win a war with these things without SMKs!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brown dog Posted March 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 That's the reason I got rid of mine. I'm finding it hugely challenging in a love/hate sort of way - even when I'm struggling with it I'm still enjoying using it. It's so completely unlike an 'easy' modern rifle, that I'm finding it quite refreshing - in a weird way! I think 5rds into c1.25inches from a sling is pretty good - took some cussing to do it though!

20series Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 I think im right in saying that anything around 3" is a good group with a 303 so your 1.5 is blinding ;-) Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tackb Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 What's it like for repeatable first round/CBS ? (what a sniper system needs) My No 4 always shot best with the same sling set up you have on yours but my P14 will shoot the same off bags or with a sling? As for ammo , try contacting Kynamco , they were doing 'match' 303 that shot superbly in most rifles even their standard mk7 ball load was pretty good!
