Have allready shot a few groups less than 2 inches with the rifle @300,haven't found the magic load yet ,but think I will get there,seems like the rifle is capable so far.I am working solely on a 55 gr bullet so far.May have to bed it ,its too new to tell yet.
If your favorite rife is the 22/250 you should be able to hit a ground hog with it at 300 yds too.

This is the first adl model I have owned except years ago I had one with a wooden stock and it was one heck of a shooter.Is the bdl stock the same as the adl in synthetic?If so I have one bdl in 280 that shoots pretty good that has been beddedanda 260 not bedded in the synthetic that shoots very well.This one has the sims recoil pad on it and a differentent design on it than the adl's so I guess time will tell how it does on the sps.
If looks helps I think it looks pretty good.
Thanks for the info.

Update on the 22/250 sps for anyone interested in one.Went to the range this morning and shot a 100 yd,3- shot,one holer using IMR 4064 and a 50 gr v-max,don't usually shoot at 200 but at 300 got a 2 inch 5-shot group with the v-max.
Shot a 3-shot group @300 using the Imr 4064 and a hornady 52 gr match it shot 1 1/2 inch 3- shot group.
The way this one shoots I wouldn't mind trying another caliber in one.Anyone else have one and what have been your results with the new sps?
