I shot these two 500 yard groups yesterday from my Howa 204 from bipods with a bag under the rear of the gun, It was fairly calm for the first group, for the second group the wind picked up and i was using slightly differerent hold off for each shot. The first group was 4 inches and the second was 5 inches. moa and under is good for me load is 25.1 10x, br4 primers, rem brass, 39 gr blitzking. Almost forgot to mention i hit a 6 inch round steel gong at the 500 meter backstop 3 out of 6 tries.

Re: 500 yard group pics
thats some pretty good shooting at 500 yards. Which model howa do you have? I have one of the 1500's with a standard barrel and hogue stock. I have been very impressed with it so far.

Re: 500 yard group pics
Now that i bedded it i really like it, it wasnt consistant with just the bedding block. The stocks that come on the weatherby sub moa varmint are avalible as well, and if i had it to do over i would bye one of those, my cousin has one and its more comfortable to me than my stock.
