Thanks, I knew your rifle had something to do with an MRC 1999 but didn't recall the specifics. Not sure I ever followed the full story of names, there was a Montana somebody making barrels who was or wasn't affiliated with Montana Rifle Company, and they became someone else, and...???
Anyway, instead of rebarreling this 1999 ASR 6.5x55 - which is in every other way a very nice rifle - I'm trying to accept the rifle throated as is. It's really a good candidate for the pre-war German treatment as talked about here
German pre-war restyling and as a peep sighted rifle I wouldn't miss those last few hundreds of an inch that I can't quite eke out of it right now with a 12 power scope.
Another possibility of going that route is that I could learn to love period correct 160 grain RN bullets and finally reach those elusive lands...
