I know what you mean. It was a hard decision, but I wasn’t going to be happy with it any other way. I’m pretty confident I can tighten that group up. I wasn’t really taking my time, it was fairly windy, and that was on a pretty hot barrel if that makes any difference. I was really just trying to get it dialed in close, and shooting to get a muzzle velocity average. If I’m not happy in the long run, I’ll just re-barrel it. That was actually my plan from the beginning, but wanted to give this a shot before I did.

I'd think you can make that group better with some tuning being it's you first try under less than ideal conditions.. Not that it's a bad group.

You’ve changed harmonics, not accuracy potential with loads in its preferred window. You may just have to find what that is all over again. I firmly believe a suppressor can be a larger factor to differences than cutting/threading done right, but that’s me.

I took my time at the range today. I didn’t change anything with my setup. This is a 3 shot group. I’m very pleased with the gun overall.

Nice chootn specialk!

That'll work , BTW that's about 3/8" center to center , you're measuring overall.

Yes, I just took the outside and subtracted by .308”, and came up with a .352” group.

Um... I think you are going to be fine. Wow.
