Both of these guns group the 155 Scenar exactly the same, 1 ragged hole, to the same point of impact at the same velocity, 2900 fps. The guns could be swapped and the target would look the same.

Borden 300 WSM
155 Scenar @ 3250 fps, MOA @ 100 yards. Not as tight as I prefer but it doesn't do any worse.
150 Accubond @ 3285 fps, MOA @ 100 yards.
Both shoot same point of impact. Loads can be swapped with no change in point of impact.

I am actually pretty pleased all things considered. The Borden is wearing a Swarovski with turrets. It'll be my Antelope rig next time out.

DirtFarmer tells me that MOA is good enough. In fact, most of you discerning shooters tell me the same. I have had a hard time settling with MOA. I mush prefer 1/2 of that.
ScenarShooter leaves us no doubt the bullet will perform. I am looking very forward to finding out first hand.


Has another scope been tried on the Borden?
