Finally got to go shoot the 26 that I had APR build for me. Was shooting factory Nosler ammo with 140 gr. Accubonds.

These are the last two three shot groups. The ones on the left were the second to last and were 1 inch left so I made the adjustment on the scope and the last group of 3 is the centered group. I know that the rifle is capable of more but the range that I went to for the first time didn't have any sand bags and the one that I took for the rear was too low so I had the fore end on the rest and the rear was just against my shoulder with me holding things as steady as I could which I'm sure is what caused the vertical difference between the shots. As you can see in the pic both groups of 3 have 2 in the same hole.
To say that I'm pleased with it is an understatment.
