I am testing a new brake, for a new builder, thus the note of the POI shift.

I see two fouling shots, then a pretty tight group. What am I missing?

Haha yea I polished that thing for hours.

And secondly, would a 6.5 Creedmoor have theoretically done more better. A 6.5 Creedmoor would've either done way better, exactly the same, or worse, with more, less or the exact same amount of recoil, while giving you the ability to tell your friends you own a 6.5 Creedmoor. I think its a no-brainer.

You're lucky that it only takes 7 or 8 rounds to get the accuracy back. My Creedmoor takes at least 15.

you are starting to make that AI sing to me Fire formed, 80 gr is 3085 fps MV. LabRadar, and DOPE on it yesterday confirmed. Just now went cold bore at 800, on the 1 MOA steel. It is an extremely fun cartridge to shoot!

lf the saying "Liar, Liar your pants on fire" were true Mainstream news might be fun to watch
