Sounds like fun. I wish you had some of the hornady black. Would like to see how it does with a good shooter. I never shot for groups, just coffee cup and called it good.i hit element range early this morning. shooting by 9. i had the 100/300 yd range to myself. beautiful day. it was great. exercised and shot in all my guns im taking on the texas hunting trip. needed to decide on a .308 round for deer and hog.
just as i was about to pack up a group of air force guys from the netherlands show. they had rented one ar-15 and bought some ammo. they dont get to own guns or shoot in their country, other than once every year or so in their military training. they were all going thru some training at eglin and were getting as much range time as they could. i pulled two of my ar-15s back out and gave them some steel case to shoot. we had a good time talking and just bonding over guns and shooting. stopped at piggly wiggly for a couple of fried pork chops then home to clean guns out in the yard. it was a great day.
oh, and i got the best groups from the barnes vortex 130 grain and the federal premium 175 grain.

im looking at my notes:Reference your groups:
I have always heard a rifle will have a high and low node as to what ammo it likes. Looks like you found yours with the 175’s and 130’s. Good deal.
Mine likes the 175gr fgmm. I tried the hornady black 168 and the 178 eld, rifle did not like those. Switched to the fgmm sierra bullet and now its single hole at 100 if I do my part. I have not experimented with the 130’s or other low weight bullet.
Was there a noticeable recoil or velocity difference between the 175 and 130?
Re sighted my thermal. Due to my fiddling around it was high right. On now! Planned on testing tonight, but forgot it was valentine's day. Out for dinner and gambling with Bride. She hit for $1,400 so far. Lucky Blonde! Lucky me!View attachment 271205 i shot my thermal yesterday also. it was still on. i blew up a water bottle on the second shot at 100 yards. yes, there was a good bit of luck there but i took it and went on.
