Quick vid testing the Sierra Matchking Competition .308 ammo.

The 168 and 175’s did remarkably well in my LaRue UU .308.

Excellent bench shooting technique. I often tell people not to "fidget" after "locking" in while shooting for accuracy.

When I say "fidget" , I mean lock in and hold that position , until they are done shooting a group. No resetting the on the cheek rest, and no repositioning the buttstock.. ( etc )

I might use this video of an example of just that.

And great groups... especially considering the bargain cost of this ammo.

Thanks for posting that. I have some 168g fgmm left in the stash, but gave up on the price ever getting back down to reality to restock. What I have remaining cost $.85/rd! Really glad to hear there is a less expensive alternative to try.

Rogers Sporting Goods seems to have the best price. It’s gone up slightly from when I purchased in December.

Just got in another order so I can test on my clubs 545yd KYL rack.
