I have searched around and not found an answer for this question. What kind of accuracy can I expect from a new 12 BVSS in 223? Of course that is with good ammo developed for the rifle.


Thank You

With good glass and ammo....sub 1/2MOA...easy.

I'd add to Texas Solo's observations that you need good shooter trigger technique to the good glass and good ammo pile! Get those three things working for you, and you can make your 12 sing!

I have 12 bvss in .308 a little disappointed with just don't shoot good only has 100 rounds thru it but goes from half moa to three moa in ten shoots at 100yd do not know if me or it has vx 3 so don't think its scope problem or am I wanting to much out of it

Check for signs of copper fouling. Check mounts and bases for tightness. Check stock screws for tightness. And make sure both barrel and tang are free floating. If it starts out shooting tight and loosens up as the barrel heats up, you probably have barrel contact issues. If none of those things seem to help, swap the scope out to eliminate the possibility that the scope internals have issues.
