FNH FNAR  




4 different "loads", but I was already pretty certain which load set I was going to go with...
100yds, 20 rounds... fairly rapid fire, 1,2,3, 4, 5, change mag, repeat... I can do a lot better.  

I love the FNAR, so far...  get it... F-N-AR so far...

The "bet" I've made with myself is "I can stay inside the shaded area, 50 rounds, 300 yards.  Sometime in the next couple weeks.  
The "zombie gun" can do it, I'm convinced, the scope is good enough, the ammo is superb.  Now, just have to see if I can.  I do need some more practice.  All the "outliers" on the target are due to MY yanking the rifle around.  Six month "layoff" DOES have an effect...

Shocked  That target was it at 100 or 300 yards???
 
Your going to put 50 rounds inside the shaded area...ie...0.67MOA 50 round group???
 
Sounds like a minor challenge to me!!!Smile Whistling
 
Good luck Dan!

Thank you, but the rifle/scope/ammo were the prime ingredients here.  I just tried to keep from making any really BIG mistakes. 

Wes, I am very happy with this setup.

Pretty impressive... nice, clean break, no overtravel to speak of.  I have not tested it, yet, but suspect the pull is right at 3.5lb.  Book says it comes from the factory set between 2.5-5.0lb.  "Feels" right in the middle of that.

I have no regrets, am glad I bought it, and will even deer hunt with it this year... not much, ...    but some hunts will be without the Lott...

What scope did you use KB?
Life's concerns should be about the 120lb pack your trying to get to the top of the mountain, and not the rock in your boot.

Kahles ZF84 with German #105 reticle.  VERY fast acquisition and can be just about as accurate as one could want... high accuracy takes a little more time, fast acquisition was what I actually got it for, but am impressed with its range of capabilities.
