Went out to shoot yesterday for the first time with my Stevens 200 XP. Weapon came with a Bushnell 3-9X40 already mounted and bore sighted. After a 5 round slow fire with clp covered patches between rounds I began to try the two types of ammo I had on hand. I had WWB 147gr and American Eagle (for M1A use) in 168gr. My rifle didn't like the WWB and it shot consistantly 1.25MOA at 100 with 3 round groups. When shifting the the American Eagle I shot 1MOA as you can see below. I can't wait to get some match grade ammo and see what it can do with it.

All shots were taken in the prone with a backpack as front support. I'm hoping when my bipod arrives it will help me tighten my groups along with better ammo.

Trigger was a bit heavy but I'm used to assult rifles with a heavy trigger so it didn't effect me too much.
