its not the mechanical accuracy of the rifle, its just so much harder to hold a lightweight gun still from an oddball position.

Mmm....that's interesting.

I do know that's the standard for a match shooter at 300 with a sling...they expect all "10"s" in rapid fire, and tell me for "slow" fire,1/2 MOA at 300.





The 280 Remington is overbore.

The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.
