My RAP in 6.5 Grendel is very accurate and very consistent. It shoots Federal's factory Gold medal Berger 130gr Hybrid OTM's at a 0.25" to just under 0.5" all day. Just wish I could find the duplicate for it off my reloading bench! Used CFE223 and 8208XBR so far with most under MOA but nothing like the factory offering yet! The factory Hornaday Black ELDM's also shoot consistent MOA and under.
I loaded Gold Dots, SST's, ELDM and MK's and I'm at, under or just out of MOA from these. I love the gun. The gun was broken-in using the PIA method I always use when new. I epoxy-filled the fore-end of the factory stock to stiffen it up and made sure that the barrel was free-floating both when hot and cold. (Had to shave a little plastic around the end and right side of the fore-end to accomplish this). I added a piece of insulation foam & foil with about a half lb of weight to the rear stock, had the gun apart and solvent cleaned the parts including the rail before putting it back together and added a decent scope. I also switched to the ASC magazines because of feed issues with a stiff spring mag. After a few rounds through it, it now uses just about every mag I put in it. The stock is the weak link on these guns but I'm keeping mine in the stock it is wearing. It's still very light and it's accurate. I have a spare Predator stock that I'm going to go black with. Can't stand that green!!
