Say what you will but I can tell you from experience those HBar Colts are capable of that accuracy.

You're pushing a chromed barrel with an even number of grooves and an OK but not great trigger. You might get an exceptional rifle and I think one version has a crowned barrel, but it's really pushing what a HBar is capable of. The guy says he just had the upper so he probably has a match trigger on the loswer and I'd guess if it shoots the way he says he's got a stainless crowned match barrel on the thing.
I've seen HBARs go sub MOA quite a few times.

Didn't say it couldn't happen but it would be pushing it to do it on a consistent basis out of the box. Do you think the trigger is that good? You know 'em as good as anybody.

Honestly those rifles are known to be shooters and that type of accuracy from them out of the box is common even with the mil spec FCG. Is there room for improvemnet in the trigger ? Absolutely ! That doesnt mean they wont perform the way described out of the box.

The very first FCG I ever messed with was on my Colt 20" HBar.

I actually like the trigger in the AR. As long as it isn't a DPMS, the triggers are usually smooth. Granted, it isn't a target trigger, but it'll do some work.

Appreciate it but it helps to have a good shooter behind them as well ! I was really impressed with the groups you were getting ! up

My Colts are all MOA at 100 and 200. Haven't tried much beyond that with AR's, but they open a little at 300 what little I have tried. The 20inch AR-15A2 Sporter II pre-ban will out shoot the M4's.....
