CSA 5.56 Rifle Accuracy???

[Johnny_Canuck]

I'm trying to get a handle on the achievable accuracy of these rifles. Has anyone done testing on MOA with a variety of ammunition available. I haven't found a report/review that satisfies an actual test yet. Interest is in 100m grouping 5 shots fired from bench, supported. I like my 858 for what it does, but if I'm going to grab a 556 model I want to know if it shoots better.

I am currently waiting for a receiver mount from wolverine so I can slap a 3-9 burris I have kicking around on my 5.56 CSA. As soon as I get it, I'm hitting the range to shoot some groupings, most likely with the MFS 55gr FMJ I have kicking around and maybe a few other brands. I found it shot well with stock irons, easily giving "minute of canteloupe" accuracy at a little over 100m. I have not regretted purchasing this rifle at all!

Hey Sakonut, we all would love to hear the first range reports after you get that scope set up!. Pics wouldn't hurt either.

OK, now you are really teasing us! Pics!!!

Good to hear, look forward to hearing your review once she's scoped up.

I have wanted to get a 6x scope for mine but haven't got around to it yet. I would love to see your review before I go for the scope. I am really surprised no one else has tried this sucker out for accuracy yet!

I ordered the mount on the 6th, should be here any day now! Fingers crossed, I hope to be braving the cold and shooting this weekend
