Well, I finally have my new .204 broke in. I have to say that I am VERY pleased. This by far has surpassed my expectations.
All 5 shot groups were shot out of a White Oak Armament Barrel with a 1-10 twist rate with Federal 39gr BlitzKing factory loads. (AR-15)
100 yards.
200 yards. (started getting really windy)
Thanks,

Very nice! I haven't got a single group like either of those with my 1:10 Dtech yet. That's pretty awesome, especially with factory loads! That could be a consistent 600 yard PD gun with that load.

I've found that the persistence I endured with the first two 204's paid off. Shots at 350 yds or less weren't too much of a challenge as long as I called the wind and did my part behind the trigger.
