I just finished reading an article in Shooting Times where author Layne Simpson explored the lineup of Sierra Tipped Matchking (and GameKing) bullets.
Layne used a device he refers to as a return-to-battery rest that, from the picture at least, appears to pretty much remove the human element from the accuracy equation. That rest, in conjunction with various actions and rail guns, turned in some very impressive 100 yard groups.
In general it appears from the results that 0.2" 5-shot groups are achievable with various hand loads and calibers using such a setup.
So, is equaling or beating this seemingly invincible machine the holy grail for us group-size-obsessed humans? If not, what's a realistic goal for a mere mortal with a decent factory rifle, dining on it's favorite hand load and fired off a sandbag rest?
