Been watching the guys with the Mini 14 and some of their groups. What kind of AR are you shooting and what groups are you getting at 100 and 200 yards.

Mine is:

Olympic PCR-16 1 x 9 twist bull barrel flat top. I have added a bushmaster 2 stage trigger, Pneumatic Recoil Buffer, KT15 Weaver scope with AO and a harris bipod BR. I shoot FMJ 55gr. Black Hills ammo.

My best group at 100 yards with 5 shots was 3/4+".
My best group at 200 yards with 5 shots was 1 1/2" .
My best group at 300 yards..........dang range is only 200 yards.

My goal is to shoot 1/4" group that they advised the Bushmaster 24" barreled varmint rifle. (No flame intented bushmaster owners)

:cool:

RRA 1-8 24" EOP Varminter upper on RRA NM Lower, with Nikon 5.5x16.5 Monarch. If I'm having a great day mine will group 3 shots in the .2-.3 Range with BH's 68 gr MHP's. Never benched it beyond 100. Mini's can be made to shoot this well but costs alot of money. Total cost of my AR is 870.00 less scope, I have about 1200.00 in my custom mini which will shoot "almost" as well

COme on guys.........post your best groups. The reason I was doing this was to see what the difference in grouping was between a 16"....18"...20"....24" barrel....

IF your groups are better than mine (16") I am planning on getting a long upper............

My Colt Sporter, with M4 barrel, groups on two-legged varmints out to 250-300 yards.
