Action trued. barrel and stock fit by John Brandstatter ( Roscoe;s LLC ) Now it has Talley's and a VX2 6-18. Load is 45.0 of RL 19, Nosler brass, CCI 200, just on the lands, 24" 1-8 #3 Bartlein. Stiff load don't start there for sure!!!!! I just measured the group with the 243 AI. 1.810". I hope no one asks me to duplicate it! Sorry for the cell phone pic. Last edited by 6MMWASP; 05/02/16.

H- 4350 at 2950 fps. CCi 200 primer, I need to get some r-19 and see if I can work up a load that works in my rifle. little more speed would help me maybe. Rio7
