The post whore thread.

....I've been doing some research on this stuff and I ran into an old thread where someone was saying that you couldn't shoot sub-moa for .223 out of an semi-auto. Is that true? ....

Absolutely not true.

I didn't think so. I've just been typing questions into Google and reading various threads on other forums. When you ask a basic question about something, I find that it generally stopped being discussed several years ago which is a bummer. I don't like reading 10+ year old threads because it seems like info has come a long way since then. Even on simple stuff like what barrel twists to use for calibers.

You're a more patient & forgiving person than I.

You can borrow my Larue if you want to convince yourself. I wish I’d had the discipline/motivation/time/balls to take up reloading. I bought everything I’d need to get started, and then sold it all. Just knew I wouldn’t do it enough to get good enough to be worthwhile. You’re meticulous enough in your other projects, I expect it will go well for you.

I'd suggest a squeeze bag for the rear / back or stock. This way you can control the slightest movement needed to raise or lower the muzzle, w/out needing to stop. Remove yourself from the shooting position you're in, find another rear bag get back in to position, realign you sights, etc. I had this one suggested to me during a class, combined with a good bipod, really made a difference in my overall shooting. And yes, Semi autos are capable of sub-moa.

You may be the only person that will ever describe me as meticulous. Basically, if I can fumble through reloading, I think most people interested in trying it can as well. I've had one squib, and one over charged round, but in .40 pistol. I'm really hoping to avoid that in a rifle. Pistol is super easy to load, IMO. We'll see how rifle shakes out. I think if you're so inclined, you can get really deep down the reloading rabbit hole, or not if you're not into that kind of thing.

You're not meticulous, just observant. You study the subject in depth, the get meticulous.
