I knew it but it came as a slight surprise. What is it you ask? The out of the box accuracy.
I purchased a 11FXP3 in the .243 caliber a couple of weeks a go and got a chance to hit the 100 yard range today.
I used some basic sight in ammo, Winchester Super-x, and Rem core-lokt both in 100 gr for now and will work out a deer round later in the summer. The first 3 shots were a inch grp 1 inch to the right, shot 4, I drop it 1 click and to the left 2 clicks, and for shots 5,6,7 after 2 more clicks you can see what was produced. This was with the Super-x.

I then shot the Remington ammo, and didn't do any additional scope adjusting since I now knew I was right on, and this is what was produced. I jerked one, but I couldn't be happier with how the gun performed.

The recoil was just perfect, and the gun was a dream to handle.
