Remington 700 243/100 Federal Blue Box/Athlon Ares BTR 2.5-15.

Definitely not my best. Better than working.

Gen II RAR 5.56?

Gen II RAR 5.56?

Gen 1. I’ve got 3 of them and this is a bad day. I can usually stay around 1.5-1.75 MOA for 10 with the ADI 69’s.
I need to shoot the 1-6 some more to figure it out.

I appreciate the reply. Have you tried other ammo?

Same rifle with Hornady Match 75 HPBT. This is about how all of them shoot.



69 ADI’s the last time out with a 2-12 Athlon.



The rifle that goes with the groups.

I think the 75’s may shoot a little bit better but I use the ADI brass for hand loads and have a decent stock.

What are the green rings on the barrel?

Extra tape for covering the muzzle. Green is what I had.

Gotcha, looking at picking up the gen II, thanks for sharing your experience with the gen I!

 

[SloppyJ]

My 6cm build but I picked up a PVA .223 barrel for it which is what this is group was from.

Origin action
22" PVA .223 with extra freebore
TT Special
Manners LRH w/ mini chassis
NX8 2.5x20 F1 Mil-C
DD wolfhunter

Shooting 75gr ELDMs w/ 24.6gr of Varget. Can't wait to see what I can do with 77tmks. This was my first trip out with it and obviously I was pleased. It's too much fun to shoot. I wanted to run 223 this year to match my son who just got his first Tikka for his birthday.

 

[BLJ]

No problem. Any other questions, feel free to fire away. PM if you like.

I’ll start my Gen 2 adventure Monday. I’m picking up a 6 ARC.

 

[BLJ]

Got the Gen 2 6 ARC today. Mounted a scope on the tailgate and went to 100.
I think it shows some promise. Hornady Black 105 HPBT.
New holes are from today. Sharpie’d holes are yesterday.

16" freedom upper from PSA. AAC TMK ammo. Shot outta the cab of the truck resting on the mirror, as fast as I could get the crosshairs back on target. So obviously not goin for precision. Was actually pretty happy with it

I had mirrors like this on a square body Chevy one time.
Lay them flat and put a sandbag on them and it was plenty steady to be minute of groundhog.

never used those. But a mirrors on a 1st gen tacoma work better for a rest then they do seeing behind you No telling how many rifles have been sighted in off that mirror or how many rocks and ground squirrels have been shot
