.223 Rem accuracy question

Post by Dogcat »

I am new Blasers and this forum. I bought a friend’s collection and now have 4 stocks and a variety of barrels.
My question is what should I expect out of a .223 Rem standard weight barrel as to accuracy?
I shoot some heavy barrel bolt rifles in .223 and get .5 to .75 MOA, but really am liking shooting my new Blasers.
Should I expect comparable accuracy in this caliber?
Thanks!

An old target shot with my R8 223 barrel (standard profile) 2-10 x Zeiss. Shot over a bag (not bench rest gear) with factory ammunition. Flier was mine. Details on the target.
The barrel outshoots me.
