    With a good hand load or even Federal GMM that rifle should shoot .75 MOA out of the box. The 1-12 twist does tend to favor the 168gr bullets though. The heaviest I go with mine is 175 for 800-1,000...

    Yep, 3gr of Bullseye here as well. My P3AT likes that load a great deal. 3gr of Bullseye works well for me from 90gr boolits on up to 108gr or so.
