Groups

"How tight were the groupings with the 155 grain factory ammo, and did you have an opportunity to try them at distance?"


Groupings........Schools out on that one. First- a qualifier. I am 72 years old. Done a lot of shooting; mostly hunting. Overweight, causing fast heartbeat. Eyesight poor, new glasses on order. Our wooden bench needs to be concrete. I could use some instruction on how to shoot off a bench.

Before I got this Rem. 700 SPS Varmint, I had never shot a group less than 1 1/2".

My first ever group @ 100 yds. with the 700 was 4 shots in approx. .60" ,one ragged hole. The 5th shot was called out and opened the group to approx. 1.1"

Second group was 4 shots in approx. .52". Fifth shot called out and opened the group to approx. 1.02".

Will take some work before I get to 1,000 yds.
