I'm in. I have a SPR 6.5-06 AI that shoots lights out with 122 grn leheigh defense controlled chaos. First picture is of shots 11-13 on new barrel. Second are of a 3 shot group on a cold, clean barrel with the same load. Never tried to do a 5 shot, we'll see how it goes!

Here's a 15 shot group from my savage 112 magnum target 338 lapua.
Cold bore is in the group.
I've repeated this a few times. I'll try to get another one this weekend.

Reading a thread about groups in the .2-.3s I thought I'd create an online challenge.
Shoot five shots into a 1" circle at 100 yards, including a cold bore shot.
Feel free to post targets from multiple rifles.
Let's keep the groups on the target as best we can, a good zero is as important as group size.
Fire at any pace you want, anyway you want. Shoot a flyer or two please post anyways.
The only stipulation is the group must be shot after reading this thread and deciding to participate in the challenge.
Also if you wish, please describe your fundamentals in shooting the group, it's a great way to learn from each other.
So next time ur at the range, hang a target and show us how ur rifle and you do.
Good luck.

Did this yesterday....But 200 yards, nice day, no wind, didn't want to waist the opportunity. I have been doing work with the 156 EOL's with this rifle after using 142 JLK's for the last eight years. Cold bore is the highest of the 5 shots. This Cooper has been very consistent, with over 1000 rounds fired. Bottom target is from 2012, also 200 yards. Cold bore touching red on both targets. Both, bipod on bench. This has been a great hunter, with over 50 game animals and coyotes taken to 1188 yards.

A few years ago I put a 6-47 lapua together with the thought of shooting some local prs type shoots. To many irons in the fire so after a little load work it got stuck in the safe. Took it out today an shot 10 rounds through it. Both better than 1/2. One is probably in the .3s. Just off some bags.

A couple 5 shot groups at 506 and 521 from this morning using a bipod and rear bag off the bench. The bench height doesn't fit me well so I stand behind it like shooting off a barricade but can rest my elbows on the bench. Not quite as stable as prone but close. The one that's off center to the right was the 1st group of the day. Wind was ~3-5mph L->R but then settled down.
