Took the rifle to the range and shot several strings with different conditions. I now have a conclusion, but it ain't conclusive.
1. Shot reloads (1050FPS) 220gr SMK with can: groups about 1MOA with some vertical stringing, almost no horizontal stringing.
2. Shot Cor Bon factory (220 subsonic) with can: same - vertical stringing, tight horizontal spread, about 1MOA.
3. Shot reloads without can: same vertical stringing, same tight horizontal dispersion.
4. Shot Cor Bon factory without can: same.
Obviously, the observation at this point is that the rifle tends to string some, not due to can, not due to particular ammo. the stringing is about 1MOA, but the rifle could easily shoot .5MOA if I could fix the stringing.
Here's the kicker: with or without can, if I let gun rest between shots, it is dead nuts every time, literally hitting the "X" every shot, no more than .25 inches off dead nuts.
Final thought, the rifle should be bedded to the McMillan HTG, now, it is not.
Thoughts?
