Guess the group size
« on: January 29, 2016, 06:53:39 PM »
Thought I'd share a little game my family plays. You advise what rifle/scope your using. Then the ammo stats. For example if you reload detail the load if factor say factory XXX grain core-lokts. The others try to guess the group size that you end up shooting in a 5shot group at 100yrds.

To start
Rifle: Savage 10T .308 (no mods) with a Cabelas alpha series 3-9x scope.

Ammo : 165gr Sierra GameKings HPBT being pushed by 40.5gr Hodgden BLC2 powder. Ignited by CCI BR-2 primers loaded to 2.695COAL.

Hope to test shoot by next weekend.
The best equipment in the world is useless to the idiot who doesn't understand it.

if you are a good shot, use a good rest and squeeze the trigger I'll go with 1.1" at 100 yards.    I had a 788 that would shoot 165 Sierra HPs in that size group.  Nothing I did would make it smaller.
