SMF

My 85 300 WSM feeds flawlessly too. As far as I recall it also picks up the last cartridge no problems. I am going to check again though when I get it back from the smiths.

Just on the accuracy front I too could not get it to shoot consistently with 180's. I never tried 150's as I wanted the heavier bullets to work in it so I got it re-barrelled (just waiting for it to come back). I suspect it would have shot well with the 150's and what is interesting here is that it seems to be the case with the people who have responded to this thread.

I am due to get the rifle back anytime now with a Pac Nor 10 twist #4 fluted on it. I noticed on the Sako site that the twist rate is 11. All quite interesting.

Thanks
