How far have you shot GGG out to? I only had the Russian stuff with me, the good news is it shoots fine at shorter distances and cycles nicely in my rifle. I struggled with the bowl as I could not see the marker square at 1000 which did not help matters. The only 'scope with a 30mm tube I have that could go on it is a 42X Nightforce, ideally I need something in-between and maybe build some ammunition and try again properly.

I will see if I can pick some GGG up next time I am at Bisley.
only out to 600 I'm not sure the NRA would appreciate me trying 1000 with an AUG although at 600 the GGG is noticeably tighter grouping

The 55gr Barnaul i tried in both my AR-15 when i had it and in my AUG 'patterned' rather than grouped :roll: , i'd only give it to someone who was going to be shooting at me! :squirrel: :lol:
