Interesting thread. It would be challenging for sure. If the goal were stated something like 6-7 hits out of 10 shots, my money would be against it every time. But I sure would love to see you do it.
Couple comments
- a big plus one on shooting a larger target so you can see the misses. It's really hard to spot impact in loose dirt at that level of precision. Easy to see dirt fly, but really hard to tell if you need to correct 1" or 2" or 1.5"
- I don't believe the gas system and moving parts really contribute much if any to inaccuracies. I agree with the part about the bullet and case neck being beat up a bit during feeding but that is super easy to create a test to prove one way or the other. But the big contributor is lock time. I'd really recommend comparing the lock time on the geiselle hi speed with the ssa-eh before buying.
- Go 18" for sure. Or even 20+
- go 1-7 or maybe even 1-6.5 so you can shoot the heavies if you want. Read litz' recent works on twist rate.
