Went out last night to verify 100 yard zero and shoot a couple groups at 500 yards to get ready for my 1st NRL hunter match this weekend. I know it doesn't make power factor or weight, so I'll just be doing the skills division. At that point its basically a PRS match with more time. Shot 15 rounds, 5 at 100 yards, and two 5 shot groups at 500 yards. Moved scope 2 clicks left after my 100 yard group. Shot 5 at 500 and they were a touch high/right. Moved 1 click down/left and fired another 5. Might go up 1/2 click from that and call it good. All groups measured right at 1/2 MOA with 30g H4895 and 108g ELDM at 2860 fps. I did have 1 flyer off to the left on the 2nd group at 500 which opened it up to 1 MOA, but otherwise 1/2 MOA. I always just blame Hornady for the flyers haha. Not really a tuned load either. Cracked open an 8# jug and just went with 30g. Shoots decent enough for what I'm doing with it. Also the BRUX barrel is on its last leg so not worth the time and money. Will be rebarreling the 1st of the year with a 28" Bartlein HV 7.5T
