Pig sent me some ammo to try......
So, I took the Rem700 out to our local Sheriff's range Sat morning. He had sent me some 1980's Lake City stuff he had left over and a handful of 168 grain Black Hills Match .308. I set up at the 50yd to get my zero or hold for these two cartridges. Then, I fouled the barrel with some 147gr ball. Then shot a couple of each to get close. Once I knew where they hit, I moved to the 100yd lanes. First was the Black hills. I only had a handful so, I tried my best to get sub moa (knowing this stuff is accurate and that the rifle likes 168gr). As you will see in the pics, it shot pretty well. I moved on to the Lake City stuff (not sure if it is surplus or match or what grain bullet). This one did ok but, not as well as the BHM. *I have to put a disclaimer that I was not on my game this day. (excuse alert!) I have a pinched nerve in my back that makes my whole left arm go numb if my arm extends past my chest. I could only do two shots before this happened and my upper body started to shake a bit.* You will see "Flyers" on the targets as a result. According to
 , it is still minute of man so, I did well...lol. Anyhow, here are two targets I snapped pics of. The other two had similar results so, no pics. I will give the Lake City another go another time as I did not shoot all of it.I want to thank Mike for sending me this ammo to try, it was a nice gesture. Plus, the brass will be excellent for reloading (if I ever get to that).          PS: In case anyone wants to know. The temp was 83deg... 68% hum....10mph NE wind......warm barrel for all shots

Human heart is about 4" across. The Black Hills match was loaded for benchrest shooting. Tha Lake City was loaded for CONSISTANCY across lot numbers so snipers could keep the same dope on the scope and expect the same POI at given ranges. Ya done good with a crosswind
