I will have to locate the target, but my #3 in 223 will shoot some loads great, others not so great.

The factory Federal 50 grain tipped varmint ammo shot 1”.

55 gr blitzkings with PP Varmint shoot 1”

64 grain Gamekings with CFE223 shoot 1-1/2” and is my deer load if I use that rifle.

55 gr Soft Points that shoot awesome in my Rem 700 shoot like crap in the #3.

There are no modifications to the rifle and thats with the barrel band in place. Scope is a 4x fixed FX-II.
