It is sitting there waiting for FedEx to pick it up today. There is no way I would "Out shoot the Shootist" at 0.032". But that would be ok with me. I would be proud to own such a fine piece of craftsmanship. Come on 0.032"

I placed an order with you 3 days ago for a 660 & Troy BUIS set in anticipation that my upper would ship soon, but it's still in the Gun Room. Its been there Since Jan 13 so I can't wait to get it!!!
Of course I'll try to out shoot your guys, but all LT Rifles I have can out shoot me, so I'm not holding my breath. |

Woot!! I made it!! 
.347 with my Costa. Ammo is Black Hills 68gr Match Moly-coated. 
I tried out some of the American Eagle 50gr Varmint stuff that Soonerman suggested and was able to put together a .396 group. But it was nearly as consistent as the Black Hills or the Ficochhi that I shot today. The Fiochhi 75gr SMK load was by far the most consistent of everything shot today though, but most groups were well outside of the test target size. |

I see what you did there  I wonder if the guy above you does
ETA: I just noticed he made a random claim on page 8. The Tard is strong with this one! |

update…. I just noticed we are shooting 3 shot groups. I initially shot 5 shot groups and shot a .810 and a .577
remeasured my closest 3 shot groups on each and found a .304 and a .246 yes this is a cheesy attempt to get a dillo because I cannot find my original target

Mark Fingar whipped me up a target with a half-scale crow's head ... so it's like a 200 yard shot at a 100.
Thoughts ?
