Good points guys. I do suppose match ammo is allowed for the "John C. Garand matches" and "service rifle" competitions though, right? Or is it service ammo only?
Does anybody know the typical sizes of the 10 and x rings for these "off the rack service rifle" shoots?
if the man can't realize better accuracy in combat,
then why bother to look for it in a combat rifle, hmm?
Very much true. Most battle rifles won't hold an 8" group past 300 yards. A properly set up AR15 or AR10 will. Either of my AR-15s will hold 8" at 300 yards, and my JP upper will shoot MOA at 600 with 77grn Black Hills...With this criteria, MOST battle rifles will not suit you past 200 or 300 yds., max.
In most cases, it will take a rifle with a new barrel, some tightening up of the action, and match quality ammo to better this.....
Wow, what kind of milsurps are they? The only surplus bolt actions that I have that shoot that good are my Finn M39s. Most of the rest are Mosin Nagant carbines though. My poor groups might have a lot to do with rough triggers and flinch.Well, most of my battle rifles are milsurp bolt-actions... I've gotten 2" groups or better out of all the bolt-actions I currently own except for my Swiss K-31 since I haven't shot it at 100 yards yet
