    How to get your rifle to shoot less than MOA

    As above.. Today I had very little to do so I took my recently bedded .270 BSA Majestic with Truflite Premium Barrel fitted by Gunworks to a trued action, never took my camera but the results were astounding!!! First I fired a 3 shot group which measured 1" and I thought "fuck that's piss poor" but after seeing on one these threads on the forum recently of a 1/4" sporting rifle, I thought I would have a go at matching that, so I fired 3 one shot groups and fuckme they were all under 1/4" and that is how you shoot 1/4" with a sporting rifle. So all you Guys that are getting 1/4" and less 3 shot groups consistently with your sporter barrel and 3-9 x 40 Nikko scope I say..........."FUCKING BULLSHIT" you are. That is benchrest accuracy!! and the majority of shooters cannot even get close to that kind of accuracy shooting off the bonnet of the truck or a rolled up shirt on the ground, so get real ya bullshittin' pricks.
    I now await the flack from the bullshit brigade
    Today I am bored

    All you do is shoot a benchrest group at like 10m, then nek minute you move the target to 100 yds and start congratulating yourself on being such shit-hot shooter

    No-one ever took me up on my challenge to shoot 5x 5 shot groups on the same bit of paper and see what the average was.

    You'd think if people cared so much about ~*my submoa rifle*~ they'd be happy to spend the 28 bucks to actually test it to a vague degree of significance

    So many 3 shot groups out of a hunting rifle with a 3 shot mag on many different days both clean and dirty cold and warm always measuring under half MOA at 100,200 and 300m is still not a "sub MOA rifle" cos I didnt shoot 5 x 5shot goups with it on the same day??? WTF would that prove?
    That i have too much money and time?

    And the only reason I even shot so many groups with it is cos I am so rich I have to musical chairs with scopes on rifles.

    Or maybe they couldn't give a toss if some guy on the inter net doesn't believe them.

    Yup VC, no matter how much I try, just can't get the frigging 5 shot groups below .308

    Maybe when I get a 22-250 things will improve

    I know what your problem is....you forgot to subtract calibre size, so there you go, you have a 0.00" group!

    I find I get the smallest groups if I just don't shoot at all. The shot-to-shot deviation is non-existant.
