Nice groups mwilkins.. You sure said the word; and that was consistancy.. With a good rifle, 1/2" groups should be easy.. Taking to to the next level can be damn hard.. You will want that rifle to be as consistanly placed as possible.. You definately will want sand bags on the rear, and it would be best for the rifle to be shot on a rest insteat of the bi-pod..
Bi-pods are great in the field, but for real accuracy work, you want that rifle to be able to recoil smoothly..
From your targets, it would seem the wind was blowing from the left side to the right..
Do you have a chrono?? It would intersting to chart the MV of each round.. Some of my worst groups were due to a large velocity spread.. All of my load work is done over a chrono.. It's the only way to know for sure.. flk k
