Finally got the chance to shoot the new MRC XWR .338Federal that I got from Shortactionsmoker. It is the old style with the bedding block.

Had some old 2 year old reloads from when I had a Kimber in .338Fed so gave them a go.

Wind up and moving off and on at around 10mph. Shot over rear bunny ears and a rolled up sleeping bag on the front.

First at 100yards: 5 went into 1 1/16 and 4 of 5 went into around .75

Second at 200yards. (shots 10-14)

5 went into 1 9/16 and 4 out of 5 into .75

Sure some of the better shooters could beat me, but it looks like those of you in on the group buy should be getting some shooters and I think I'm going to like this one. The Kimber shot ok, but recoil was a little more than I liked. This one is tame in comparison.
