That 0.8 group seems like what you were looking for.
I studied that one but cant honestly call that one a flier. Its possible, the factory trigger on my xbolt is so different... there is zero play when cocked, its right up against its wall, and there is zero creep when pressed. Its 3.8lbs and just breaks with no feel. IIRC that was the second shot on that string and it felt good it just went there. It could be the other two were lucky.The 3.455 looks like it was really good with maybe a flier?
What he said ^^^^^^^!Put a trigger tech or Timney in it and shrink your group size, 24 oz is what I prefer!
i still think I would shoot the 3.455 again and hope it was a flier or a slight pull.I studied that one but cant honestly call that one a flier.

I think I want to do a second coal test on either side of the .8/3.465" group to confirm.
I have a triggertech on my hunting rifle and have them set at 2lbs or less and love it even for hunting.I have a Triggertech in my 25-06 and it’s awesome but I set it around 4lbs. Not certain I want a super light trigger in my hunting rifles. I need to be able to shoot the same groups I hunt with.
It could be worth repeating. Assuming the one is a flier I would not guess Id go from 1.5moa to what looks closer to ~.5moa in only .005" coal change.i still think I would shoot the 3.455 again and hope it was a flier or a slight pull.
even in blizzard cold temps with gloves on?I have a triggertech on my hunting rifle and have them set at 2lbs or less and love it even for hunting.
Glomitts. I sneak my trigger finger out just long enough for the shot.even in blizzard cold temps with gloves on?
I’ve hunted in Idaho at 13 degrees with it but I don’t really like gloves so not sure I’ve tried to shoot it with gloves. My hands seem to stay warmer without gloves.even in blizzard cold temps with gloves on?
I do have a spare scope but I dont think anythings wrong with my current scope, last range session held groups, I believe Im on the downhill side of this quest... plan to go back to my range to do one more seating depth test and select the best node and call it done. The rest of this summer will be spent out in the woods where I hunt practicing various shooting positions and ranges. Eventually I will work on the Grendels precision next.Do you have a different scope you could throw on there? I have two VX5HD’s. Ones a firedot and one isn’t. I worked up a load with the non-firedot that was great load. I bought the firedot and put that on the rifle and couldn’t hold MOA for the life of me. Swapped back to the old scope and rifle was back to grouping like it should. I’m sending the firedot back to Leupold to get checked out.
