IndigoWolf Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 Ok, I'm a accuracy freak. I like to plink at targets out there a ways... 50, 75, and 100yrds. One of my biggest questions is what kind of groups are you getting with your M&P15/22... at what distance? Open sights / scoped? I'm not expecting MOA but I'd like to be able to place some tightish groups down range.What's your experience? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ipschoser1 Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 My rifle is pretty accurate with decent ammo. Here is a group that was recently shot with CCI's "AR Tactical" ammo at 25 yards with an unmagnified dot sight from an improvised rest. With some optical magnification and a better rest, it would probably do better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madhouse Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 All I've even done with mine is plinking steel silhouettes with open sights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longitude Zero Posted December 14, 2011 Report Share Posted December 14, 2011 Inside of 25 yards mine prints coffee cup sized groups with open sights. With an optic I am sure it will do better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndigoWolf Posted December 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2011 Good input so far .... shows potential for printing decent groups out to near a .22LR's limits. I'll be adding a scope to the package when I place my order. I like to push the edges of these limits just to see what can be done. Its surprising what a 22 can do on a calm day at 100yds. I now need optics to do what I did with open sights 30 years ago though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndigoWolf Posted December 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 I like the looks of the M&P15/22 but wasn't sure the tactical format would do what I want. Then again, I can have a whole lot of fun trying and still have a cool setup. The fun factor actually out weighs any MOA capabilities.

belstad Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 I haven't tried shooting paper at 100 yards for grouping purposes but I do have a 10 inch self-healing target that I can easily hit at 100 yards. I'm using a fairly cheap Barska 4x32 scope and CCI Blazer ammo. I imagine with the right ammo and optics you could get fairly good groups.

StuTalon Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Did some scope adjustment this weekend and at ~100 yards we were seeing groups of 5 rounds roughly the diameter of a coke can. This was laying in a truck bed with a bipod using CCI rounds and shooting through a Bushnell Trophy XLT 4-12x40. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndigoWolf Posted January 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Thanks, this is starting to give me a good idea of what I can expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kocyandia Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 ive been 30 yds and getting decent quarter to half dollar sized groups on a bench with bags, with a red dot. Im using SuperX dont know if that makes a difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
