The wife bought me a Kimber Montana in 300wsm. Had the chance to shoot it last week. Just thought it would do a lill better that this 3 shot group at 100yds . ( about 1/2")

Load was 64g of Re-17 Fed 215m and a 180TTSX.

1/2"?

Looks less than 1/4" to me.

Congrats, good shooting.

Kimber's shoot great. I have a 308, it shoots like that.

I don't think so. There was another fire member there. He is responsible for loading the shells.

Nice part about the shots, they were all were over 3000fps.
which was my goal.

Honestly, that is a great group but I would love to see several similar groups from the same combo on the same day before declaring it a 1/2" MOA gun.

Mr. Clark give me about a week and I will see what I can do. Still have some ice fishing to do. Retirement is a busy life.

The only tweaking the gun has had was a lill shortening of the front screw on the scope mount.
