tinkerfive Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Hey all! Roscodoh paid me a visit yesterday so I pulled one of my recent acquisitions out that until yesterday hadn't yet been fired. I had bedded and bore sighted the gun. It came drilled for bases. I just had to mount a scope. He fired 3 shot groups. We adjusted the windage and, never touched the elevation. The last group was this; one 1" high of Point Of Aim, one 1" left of POA, one 1" right of POA. SO! The gun shoots within 1" of where you aim it and the resulting pattern is 2" across. Is this a 1 or 2 MOA gun????????????????????? I've never had it explained to me in a way that I truly understood and the way that this gun shot just happened to be about the best example that I could use to understand. Tinker P.S. Thanks Jason, two days after a root canal there was no way I was laying my cheek up against a 30-06! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karlunity Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 2 MOA .....but with handloads it is possible to get MOA from a rifle like that. karl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Hess Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 Also remember that the "official" way to measure is from center of hole to center of hole, not outside to outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemski4 Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 measure outside to outside, and then deduct bullet diameter. That will give you center to center measurement. It is shooting Sub 2 MOA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
