I just bought a Howa Ranchland in .308. My first trip into the desert was less than thrilling. It was very windy which made it hard to hold on target. I shot a box of cheap Rem. Green Box FMJ's to season the barrel and to get on paper.
While I was on paper, I was all over it. I shot a half a box of pretty good ammo which printed a 2" group +/- at 100 yards. I think a little of the problem was me not knowing what to expect recoil wise out of a 20" barrel. I think both the rifle and I got better over time.
Here is the question. Does anyone out there have one of these and what kind of accuracy are you getting and with what bullet?
Mine has a very crisp trigger, very smooth action and I love the Hogue stock.
