Yesterday ive got to break in my new NM M1A top with a SB 5X25X56 PMll PL4F, Badger ordonnance low rings...
Those are the first official shots of my new rig after a rough zeroing... I did use a variety of ammo ranging fron 145 to 175 gr, groups ranged from sub MOA to 1.5 MOA... Distance is 100 yards....
There is 12 short videos, just press on the images to see.... JP.

amazing piece JP.

when i've seen you unpacking that one, i was like: '''wheeew, what a nice rig'''. never glanced at a sooo sparkling M1A.

that thing is very accurate even with shelve ammunition. top class rifle,and very good shooting on your part .

can't get enough of your passion for nice firearms, when you hit the range we know we're set to witness amazing pieces of art at work .
 
This setup will be a final one, the S&B will be the permanent scope for this NM... A match made in heaven, i was a little worry about the CASM rail but it proven after 150 rounds to be sturdy and excellent even with a 2 pounds scope, this is settled, that's one good thing... JP.
 
Hornady Superformance 150 gr SST. video 12... Just was on the phone with the lady at LeBaron and got her to put aside for me the last 14 boxes in stock ( 15% sale is on ), gonna go an get them tonight... JP.
 
my good buddy claude was here today. been in atpq shooting military rifle class his whole life, told him bout your NM. he has one, i was in hope you might land with it which would have been cool. i know he has good recipes for it . while your unit shoots pretty good with shelve ammo, potential is there for less than an inch all day,even the bad ones.

I agree with you Sig, the potential is huge, but reloading is time consuming and and my needs for top accuracy are taking second priority, if i compare to some extra fun activitys i have started lately... ( i have a Nemesis all tucked up under my bed in it's backpack gathering dust to prove it.... Lol ) JP.
 
Was at Le Baron yesterday and got 15 boxes of this Superformance 150 gr SST that did so good in my rig... With this ammo the rig is giving me sub MOA performance, this is quite satisfactory... JP.

JP you definitely have a great rifle there, and a good eye too.
Have you ever considered the 1.5 MOA challenge ?
Currently only a Norc has made the grade.
Be nice to see a Springfield/LRB etc up there too.
Its a nice friendly thread as well, all advice and no slagging :)

Either way, tight groups.
 
Yes, i want to do it, i will set up later on in the summer for this, it's gonna be interresting... JP.
 
Very nice setup JP. As soon as I get my access back to the EE I'll be in the market for a NM or SM or M21, JRA. As fantastic looking as those wooden stock, I'll be looking for a composite and/or Troy chassis for mine.

Some funny comments at the beginning of that 1st video !

Since i have 2 NM, this one in the tread may end up on the EE but, i am not decided yet... Time will tell... JP.
