Should I keep it, or not. (I thought I could do a poll, but now I can't find it)
Just got back from the range today, the details..
Shooter- me, pretty average I think, no indication I am a 1/2 MOA shooter, but I am probably better than 1 MOA.
Range conditions, very good, slight breeze, 35 deg.
Gun- Sabre Defence 20" SS MED. contour, full flutes, Gill brake, 6.5 G. Zeiss Conquest 4.5-14
Ammo- AA Berger 115g HPBT, 2465fps on chrono at 6 ft.
Group 1: 3-shot .9"
Group 2: 3-shot .9"
Group 3: 5-shot 1.1" (first 4 shots went .5")
I have no idea the capability of the ammo I am using, and my only expectations for the gun is that it is at least sub MOA, for as far as 600 yds. I plan on reloading
for it as soon as I shoot up the shells I have. What do you think? Is this about as good as I can expect in a light 6.5 G setup? (I don't want a heavy bench type setup) Or should I send it back and hope the next one is better? Thanks for your opinion....
