Looking for coaching in Winnipeg - Help with grouping in 50m smallbore

[Mystic Precision]

Hi Maynard,
Right now I'm using a Savage FVT, with the aperture sights that came on the rifle. I bought 5,000 CCI SV rounds that work reliably. I'm using a cotton US GI style sling I bought through Project Mapleseed. I don't have a proper jacket or glove. I'd like to get some but not being able to try them on first is keeping me from 'pulling the trigger's so to speak.

how well does this combo shoot if on a bipod or front/rear bags?

Said another way, what is the average group size of 10X5rds groups at 50? note - use 10 random rds from 5 boxes. If you want to know more, out of a box from each brick.

You can't outshoot your ammo/rifle.... so count EVERY shot... there are no pulled shots (shoot at your best, slowest pace, most stable rests).. I would mount a scope when doing this test.

Note... if you want to shoot 1" at 50 off your elbows, I would suggest a rifle/ammo combo that will shoot as close to 1/2" at the same distance using stable rests front and rear. You maybe doing everything correct but if your ammo/rifle is not helping, you are just reinforcing a negative loop. To reach any goal, the gear has to exceed your abilities.... or you can not improve.
