Great shooting,

Good idea,Next time.

Nice shooting....and folks think you cant shoot a 308 out of a 20in gun with a 175gr SMK and keep it within 1/2 -1MOA!

Technology has advanced folks...even semi auto gas piston AR's are now that accurate...and Im not talking about the cheap ones...LWRC, Larue...all of them will shoot that tight with good optics and a good round loaded up.

Great shooting bro! Was this timed? Did you guys do a sight-in? Limited?/Unlimited? Did you have a certain amount of round grouping like 5, 10, 15, 20rds etc? I'm really focusing on F-Class and I've wanted to learn more...
