I've heard quite some variation in accuracy reports. Some people say 1 MOA some people say 3MOA.
If like to hear from some people who have them, just how well they shoot.
 
Depends. How good of a shot are you? Open sights Ive done about 1.5" at 100 meters on a lead sled. Im running an XCR-M, keymod, lightweight. 200 meters with iron sights I was about 2.5" I think. Toss an optic on anything and you can dial that down. Just like any gun, its more the shooter than the tool. Id bet the thing is sub moa capable for a good shooter. Ammo i was running was hornady .308 superformance, forget the gr. Some day i plan to toss on an Elcan Spectre (1.4x-6x flip I think they are), with the .308 reticle.
 
Ive owned 2 XCR's and they never shot any better then 3.5" on average. Sure Id get lucky every now and then and get 1.5" but that doesn't make it a 1.5" shooter. They did work really well on coyotes and beavers though.
No way the XCR is an 1 MOA
 
I have the -L and I've been getting 2-3 moa, probably closer to 3 with factory ammo and with handloads have been able to knock it down just a hair under 2, like 1.75 on average. Thats with a 1-4 scope balancing on the mag. Might be able to see it getting 1.5MOA but definitely no lower than that.
