Post by: Kain on January 11, 2009, 07:58:10 PM: Well had it out to the range today. It performed very well. We brought a bore sighter with us but just for grins decided to see where it was right out of the box with a new scope. We were on paper at 30 yards, after a couple adjustments we were in the black on the third bullet. Moved out to 100 yards and had it grouping in the black by the tenth bullet. It was a foggy day at the range and although it was tempting to burn through the hundred rounds I had with me, I settled on 2" groups with bulk 55gr V-max reloads. This is my first AR and I am hooked, everything about this rifle just feels solid and intuitive, pretty happy with it. :IBCOOL:
