155 Scenars in a 308 Montana are a badass combo....
Tanner How are they on 900 yard headshots?

Wow.
I'm amazed at what passes for acceptable accuracy here. Show us what's acceptable. Travis

Good shooting Brad and 1Deernut. With consistent shooting form, its nice to see how a lightweight can perform.

If that rifle shoots five into .67, I wouldn't touch it. It ain't for benchrest. Nice!
If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.

Looks good to me!!! Heck I am happy with anything inside 1.5" at 100 yards though. I find that "acceptable accuracy" given the distances I shoot game from. Anything tighter than that is a bonus!!! You don't need a sub MOA rifle to kill any big game animal inside 300 yards contrary to popular opinion.  Congrats on the new rifle 1Deernut!

Thanks, guys. I'm plenty happy with the accuracy of the rifle with both 150 NABs and 150 TTSXs. I've punched enough paper, rang enough steel, and killed enough animals out to 500 to know that 1 MOA is acceptable if the shooter does his part. In fact, I loaded 40 more of the 150NABs last evening. Can't see improving on that load much!
Ordered 100 Scenars last evening after doing a skim bed. The rifle didn't seem to need it, but it makes me feel better that the bedding is tight.
Looking forward to more shooting, and spinning dials for distance. Should be a nice little rig.

Nice rig, nice shooting 1Deernut.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Lots of guys get hung up on groups, as do I sometimes. But groups are a fools game and hitting stuff is the fun part. Enjoy the Kimber.

Look'n good. After the barrel breaks in those groups should tighten up even more.

I think it was Steelhead years ago that said he'd much rather own a "hitter" than a "grouper". He won't wrong.

If it will average 5" or less at 500 yds then its a 1" gun. If not then its just another gun being called a 1" gun. Shod

You haven't figured out that accuracy ain't linear yet?

I have never owned a rifle that wouldn't do both.

Tanner Sure it is! The further away the bigger the groups! Right?  That's linear!
The 280 Remington is overbore.
The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.

I'd say you're plenty good to go with that rifle/load combo. Good shooting!
