Groups like that give a person a lot of confidence. Nice shooting!

I love it when things live up to the hype!

I picked up a RAR in 6.5CM a few years ago and experienced similar results.

Yup if I can shoot as good which is near impossible.

.56 group with Barnes handloads from admiral/Subsailor74




This barrels shoots.

The 6.5 impressed me same as the blaser and the Leica.

Saeed ! "from every rifle we build"

Yes and so you should ! tu2

However the difference is we are seeing groups like that from stock, standard, over the counter, out the box, unworked, nothing tweaked rifles and some instances brands that for years been viewed as the cheapest budget rifles ! Not that a Blaser R8 is a cheap rifle ( in my world they are of the most expensive production guns on the market )

What is even more amazing is that makers like Ruger, Remington Sako , you name them have come up with cheaper budget line rifles that are outshooting their more expensive offerings !

Yes but that is from an expert gunsmith/rifle maker/constant tinkler/expert reloader/skilled bullet maker.

This is from a expensive factory rifle whose barrel has been taken off and moved around a few times - same with the scope mount. The Ammo is the cheapest factory stuff at academy.

Why I use a styrofoam picnic plate as a target backing. With the 6.5 blaser I have had a few hole in hole and they freak me out and I stray on the third shot. Yes Saeed did make fun of me on instragram for using a dinner plate Big Grin

Now I can flip the target on the back and see in the styrofoam the bullet impact better than on the target paper.

Big Grin. Fully agree

But have we ever seen a target from Biebs - the man with a private rifle range dancing
