    Watching Wind Flags

    The sooner the bullet is pushed off course, the bigger the group. Close flags over long flags. After the bullets stabilize, less effect the wind has on the bullets.

    Remington 40X single shot .300 WM

    10 rounds into an inch at 100 yards without much effort on my part. ( I did it twice) For $1200, buy it. But check to see if the twist rate is what you need for bullets you want to use. Gun had to shoot 1/2" before leaving the factory.
