271000 rounds of RUAGs finest .308 went out the door. My desk is still covered in issue and return vouchers trying to figure out EXACTLY how it all was disposed of (I was going to say trying to figure exacly where it all went, but even I am not anal enough to measure every hole in every target!).

The statistics for those 271k RUAG's would be interesting, do you publish such data Iain?

[targetman]

The scores proved the RUAG ammunition to be very good indeed.

Now I think the NRA need to do something about target dimensions, not much point having 1&1/2 MoA bull when the ammunition and, more pertinently the rifles, are capable of so much better than that.

Out interest I had a box of 20 RWS left over from the RWS Agg of the Match Rifle. I have just pulled all 20 ropunds to measure the powder weight. Lowest was 43.7 gr and highest was 44.1 gr. The powder is an extruded rod similar looking to N140. From the powder weights I would deduce that the powder is faster burning than N140 and may be similar in charcteristics to N135. The Batch pulled was the same as used in the Queens and that shot very well.
