Read a sort of update on this recently by Gen. Boddington himself. Picture included his "group" which was in the lower front leg. Seems he had never actually shot this rifle/load at 400 yds. was using computer generated drop info. Obviously Mr. computer was wrong. couldn't be that the ammo manufacture is a little generous with their advertised load capabilities??
& this from a fellow Marine, fercryinoutloud!
Lesson learned??
