I was shooting 1-1.5' MOA using the eotech at 100 yards. On another note, I was really impressed with my LMT piston rifle using the new Eotech XPS, and PMC ammo.

What kind of accuracy should I expect out of this rifle? Thanks in advance, Are the Socom II's really that bad? I can't see a 2K gun shooting that crappy. Could the reticle be bouncing around inside the Weaver? I forgot my tools, so I couldn't remove the scope and use the irons. The only thing I can think of is I got a dud for a scope. Maybe 3-4' groups with the occasional flier. So, I next moved to a 50 Yard target and it wasn't much better. What gives? I would be able to put maybe 2 or 3 shots within and inch, and then behold a flier would land about 5' away from the previous shots. Now I know the Socom is supposed to only shoot around 2 MOA, but I could only get around 6-8' groups with MY HAND LOADS? I was fully supported on the bench and I'm a decent shot. Wow, I just assumed I had some crappy ammo, so I switched to some of my hand loads using Varget and SMK's. I shot some factory loads with it, and was getting around 5-12' groups.

I started off at the 100 yard mark with a front and rear bag on the bench. I have a (new) Weaver Classic 2.5-8X24 handgun scope on it. Well, let's just say i was very unhappy with it's accuracy.

I was all excited to see how it would shoot. The trick to shooting tighter with an EOTech is to turn the intensity down as low as you can before you lose sight of the reticle, and then give it maybe one click up in power from that point (using the 1 MOA dot, obviously).So, Here's my gun I was just shooting last sunday at the range, Well, yes it would be on the higher end of accuracy for the SOCOM, but that's not what's so surprising- the fact that you can do with with an eotech at 100yards is what's so surprising almost unbelievable.
