Just got mine. Bore sighted it, then fired two rounds (upper right), made some adjustments, followed by 5 more rounds (lower group). Very impressed with the accuracy of this round.....Cliff

"Welcome to our electronic campfire, Cliff. Nice black rifle and nice group you have there!"

Thanks!

Those were the first 7 rounds out of the 450, leaning over my gas grill on the back porch firing into the woods behind the house, distance apprx 45 yards.

I fired another group last Saturday at 110 yards with three rounds touching and two just outside that group lower right. All the rounds were under 2". I didn't have a good rest there either, just leaning off the corner of the truck bed. I just wanted to see the point of impact further out.

When I get time, I'll set up a good rest and shoot some more groups and post the results. So far, this rifle is showing itself to be quite a "shooter".....Cliff

LOL! That's almost how I shot my first rounds out of my XM15. I shot it for the first time off the top of my grill!

Next time, if you do that while you're cooking up some ribeyes, you can call it "multitasking"... ;)

Probably woln't be a "next time". The recoil from the 450 was a bit more than expected. I ended up putting a nice slice in the grill cover....ooops! Deb's not going to be too happy about that!.....Cliff
