My bad, make that one three shot group for the Steyr. Got mixed up with another rifle......



+/- 1.55 inches center to center. Shots 1 & 2 are with the set trigger. Shot three is not using the set.

I purchased this from the original owner for whom Steyr custom built the rifle. He did not clean the barrel before he shipped it to me and I did not clean it myself. IMHO most barrels are cleaned way to often, need to be fouled in, and then are good for at least 75 rounds or more.

I have some 130 gr. Accubonds, 140 gr. Sierras and some 160 Gr. Sierras that I will try to see if it likes any one of those better than another.

ya!
