After a little ladder est got an easy load tailored in for my R1, 69 gr of H-4350, 210 primer, OAL 3.300, TSX 225 gr bullet.... Over the Oehler, i was just north of 2800 fps....
This load is a sub-moa at least up to 200 yards, ( will shoot at 300 metres next time), slow shooting over the sand bags, i am satisfied of this performance that is quite good out of a semi.... JP.

Methinks the semi being less accurate thing is a myth... My own personal experience.

Your have a great rifle there, congrats.
 
Very satisfied with those results, these rifles, we must not forget, have the M4 and MR-1 genetics in them, that is a good base.,.. JP.
 
Looks good caramel! How long did you let it cool between each shot in the 5 shot groups?

Maybe 45 secs between shots on the 100 yards, on the 200 yards it was kind of rapid, as soon as i got the target well center, bang, i noticed no vertical stringing, this is one of the great asset of those Crio barrel... JP.
 
Above all, what really get to me is how tame the recoil is on such a powerfull caliber, nice piece of enginering... JP.
 
Nice shooting for a semi! Really nice shooting! Got a pic of the rig??
Did gather some pictures for you guys, and it is quite a light rig, 8.75 pounds loaded, a real hunting rifle, did ordered a nice wide sling for it... JP.
