Why I'm happy to go LRP's,when given a choice in .473". This new receiver,is prolly the worst I've ever had.

700 223 SALAMI 1-7" NSS. 24grs of Lever' in R/P hulls,400's and a 88 ELD moly Smooch at 2.545" COAL and 2620fps. ES/SD are stupid Lever' trite,Precision is averaging high .3's/low .4's. Positive headspaced the spout,to a goodly Lot of sized brass. Primers were flowing all over the fhuqking place. Hint.

Swapped bolts with a bushed one from Gre'Tan(can't say enough good things about his work),added .5grs of Lever' and 60fps to the equation and them differences are beyond stark. Hint.

(3) rounds rearmost are the increased pressure rounds,wearing the bushed bolt. Lesser PSI in foreground. Hint.

Even more telling,from the side. Hint.

50 degrees today,Lever' swings well and I'll hold pat on everlasting case life and be happy to let the .545BC do the work.

Hint.

Just sayin'...................
