All groups must be under .75" whether or not you shoot at 100 yards or meters. I realize it sucks for the 100 meter guys but that's the way it is.

Rem 700 VSF in 223. I'll I've done is add a Tac Pro adjustable cheek rest. Now if I could only learn to stop pulling 1 shot in almost every group I shoot with it, I'd be set.
he did it with 5 groups outta six, with half being under .383....and you honestly feel that he is sooo close ????
Porterhouse..great shooting man!! Thak looks like an outstanding ballistics program you're using. Are the distances calculated with the cursor throughout the program ?
Yes I feel he was close but not successful. He definitely did some great shooting but his post does not meet the requirements of the challenge.
This should qualify.
First the pictures.
All groups shot off a bipod.
Group 1: .375
Group 2: .443
Group 3: .387
Group 4: .562
Group 5: .408
Avg: .435
Small group: .599 - .224 = .375
These groups were shot by my father with his rifle.
Rifle is a tikka varmint heavy barrel in .223 Rem. Off the shelf with no work done.
Scope is a Bushnell 4200 6-24.
Harris S series bipod.
Rear bag.
Load is 55 grain V-Max bullets under 12.9 grains of alliant bluedot (gotta watch for double charges!). Speed around 2700 fps. OAL is max for the tikka magazine.
I've worked up this load with my father for our gopher outings each spring. All rounds loaded off a lee turret press using an auto disk to charge the cases.
I figure this isn't bad accuracy for a load i can make at the rate of 200 an hour.
