Swiss Arms groups at 200 yards, 0.6 MOA 5 round group!

I went out shooting again today and was very impressed with the results. One group of 10 rounds was 2.5" @ 200 yards, and one group of 5 rounds was 1.2" @ 200 yards. An impressive 0.6 MOA.

Shot using Swiss Arms Classic Green using my Hornady V-Max reloads. Optic was a Trijicon ACOG TA31F. The rifle was rested both on the magazine (short mag) and under the stock, providing improved support and allowing me to shoot better groups.

i cant get groups that good with my 1/7 twist swiss ... im thinking of selling it ..

@MrLongbranch303 Try some 60 gr Hornady V-Max with the load data I posted. Also try some 68gr Hornady BTHP rounds with a similar OAL to mine with BLC-(2) powder.

@MrLongbranch303 I don't see a reason to do that yet.  I bet your rifle can do sub MOA with the right load.

Having room for 2.295" is nice. I have a Swiss Arms Green Classic, but it has a NEA lower. The NEA lower is great because I can use all my AR-15 mags, but I can't really have an OAL much longer than 2.260".

@pittsky Yah, it's what all the pros use. :P

But seriously, it's a typo, lol. CCI small rifle magnum primers, no. 450.

@norcofreerider604

Large rifle primers?

[locknloadvideo]

arghhhhhhhh I WANT YOUR RIFLE!

[norcofreerider604]

@pittsky They fit the Swiss mags and have about a 50 thou gap.

@norcofreerider604

2.295"? Are you single loading, or do those fit in the Swiss mags?

I load my .223 mag length loads to 2.260".

@norcofreerider604 im just going to see if i can trade mine for a 1/10 rifle on CGN ....

[norcofreerider604]

@MrLongbranch303 Yah, 1 in 10. Try the load I use, and try tweaking it a little bit. Both the powder charge and seating depth are important, and can significantly change your results. How big are the groups you're getting? 3MOA? I wouldn't be happy with that either, but if you're getting 1.5 MOA, that's still pretty good.
