Getting there. Not bad from standing, especially if unsupported. Good luck getting it dialed in.

I have to also work out my flinching. Around a month ago I blew a 300 win mag up in my hands and it may have given me a bit of a flinch when pulling the trigger lol. The first round of each group was be for a clean Barrel

Unless you have some sort of ordnance on that RC, there should be no question about which project gets your hard-earned scratch!!!

The Grendel is much more pleasant to shoot than a 300 Win mag, especially one that goes BOOM! I developed a flinch from a 300 Win Mag in 1974 after shooting military match for years with a NM Garand. I still think about not flinching or jerking the trigger to this very day, it is a mental game.

Hi one more test target the string up the middle is the last of the breaking in of the barrel and two separate adjustments of the scope on 5 round groups. Bottom is left is a five round group the last I shot. As you may see I still have a flinch,need I need a lot of range time this summer to work it out. T

I was going to say maybe upgrade the trigger to help with groups but it sounds like you have a decent trigger in already.

The flinch will pass with time and exposure. We have all been down that road at one time or another. Do you use the RC planes to tow targets for the grendel?
