    It's done. Finally.


    I own an Axis (without accutrigger) chambered in .308. it's been an interesting road, but for now I am happy. Saturday I shot my best group so far with it. 1 inch group at 100 yds. 4 shots. This was with Hornady 165 gr sst superformance.

    The gun is in a Boyd's spike camp stock, has a lighter trigger along with a glades armory extended bolt handle, desh industries lift kit and finally, the muzzle has been threaded for a brake (which it wears proudly).

    I'll post a photo of the gun tonight, but this is the group from Saturday.

    My Precision Elite is a tack driver. It's me that's the unknown variable. Shooting tight groups isn't much of and issue, it has the precision. I'm now focusing on accuracy, which is much harder when you try to combine it with precision.

    Here it is. Honestly, I'm amazed that this gun did 1 MOA with factory ammo.

    Also, in regards to accuracy. My point of aim was the line between the 8 & 9. I zero'd the scope in pretty humid conditions (dense air). With it shooting just over an inch high in dry conditions, I'm content :)

    I feel the same way. It took me a bit to confirm my load recipe but now mine, 30-06, shoots 1MOA as well. I have heard some elsewhere put down the Axis but I have two and neither of them disappoints me. My other is in 6.5 CM and I get .5 MOA with it

    For hunting I always zeroed high at 100yd. I'd try to make it so the actual zero was at 250yd.
