What could be expected in terms of accuracy of a Anschutz - 1827F biathlon rifle at 100 meters?

I can not find that data anywhere. Would it be near 1moa? I believe they are shooting at 3moa targets during matches (I don't know the correct term for the event)

Shooterer,

I don’t own an 1827 but I do compete in biathlon’s and Have aided competitors sighting in Annie’s quite a few times. Always at 50 meters, mostly prone with a strap, sometimes from a rest.

At 50 meters any given 1827 I have watched can do 1/2 inch groups repeatedly. Most of the groups from one of my better shooting peers are touching. I would say that 1 minute groups are the outer limit for an properly maintained and shot 1827.

I shoot an Izzy, what it gives up in accuracy it makes up for as a shovel. Seriously, can not damage the things. Built like a cannon. Helps when you spill on skis and your rifle meets a nearby tree. Sorry tree, Russian steel wins.
