Most Milsurps are capable of great levels of accuracy, in all honesty I know all guns have their limit, but I think it is more often the nut behind the butt, and most guns will out shoot their shooters.

These were the first 10 rounds fired from my ERA (often rated as the poorest of the makers) P14, it was only at a 100mards.

The top group was me shooting prone (4 in the singular hole and one flyer) and the lower group was 5 rounds kneeling.
Each group was shot by different shooters (me and Huntervixen), neither of us had handled the rifle before.

As a disclaimer, I only assume the top, small group belonged to me shooting prone, either that or Hunter is better at shooting kneeling than I am prone!

edit: for reference the target is 16inches in diameter.

A lot bigger methinks.............
Mine's was 3 inches in diameter with 17 rounds (2 +15) all touching. This was from a front rest with a 3-9 x 40 scope. Rifle is a 1943 K31 shooting carefully made handloads with a 168 SMK on the top. The rifle can undoubtably do better ... it's me that is the problem.

Will any of the scope brackets currently available for the k31 also fit the g11 ? :flag6:

There are now a couple of options for the G11 on the Swiss Products website:
  • A screw on mount (requires drilling/tapping)
  • A Clamp-on mount
