XCR Compact Tac 223

[todbartell]

I got a couple hundred rounds down the tube now, here's my last six shot group from the other day at 300 meters (328 yards). 1.9" c-c

60 grain Nosler Ballistic Tips over 23.5grs Benchmark, CCI400/W-W case. 3050 fps.

I was gonna get the action bedded but I might not bother!

mounted is the Leupold Mark2 3-9x40 in Talley lightweight rings

how many 223 do you have i think you might be able to sell me this one??

 

[todbartell]

just one. Have owned four, but always sell in search of the ultimate! I wonder what is next? LOL

Awesome group, bud! Awesome!!!!

Bedding certainly can't hurt, but that's a great group.

Anyone know where I might be able to find one of these Remington 700 XCR Tactical Compacts .223 in stock? Or backorder available?
I have one in .308 and love it! I've been looking for awhile but can't seem to find any .223.

I have the same gun with 26" barrel older model you should be able to shrink your groups by at least 50% with some changes
#1 bed gun
Go to 69 gr Sierras or 75 gr Berger
And powder use Varget near max loads
Lapua brass
CCI BR 4 or fed gold match primers
good luck
