Well then, you got yourself one heck of a deal. But that's the way it goes: If your looking hard for one, you'll be lucky to find a decent one in the 850-900 range. I have 4 W52s now and most turn in their best groups, by far, with Eley Match. Ammo off the #1 machine seems to be best in factory barrels. Lapua Center X is a close second and more affordable. If you really want a fun challenge, mount an old Lyman Super Target Spot and shoot some groups at 100 yds. My C, at 50 yds, shoots consistent groups in the .17" range. At 100 yds, I can sometimes break 1".
