Thanks for all the positive comments guys!! I was able to get out to the range to finally shoot the new rifle......it did not disappoint. I was only able to shoot at 100 yds before the rains hit. 3 shot groups with Hornady Precision Hunter ammo = 143 grain ELD-X First group after initial sight-in: ![[Linked Image]](http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg66/JBL101/C5AD6799-AAA6-4B97-AC99-A168D18B7E22_zpszjzmiw59.jpg) Next group to confirm zero: ![[Linked Image]](http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg66/JBL101/A742919E-243C-4701-9B51-0B6C0F49A505_zpswtkclkvu.jpg) Elkhorn Precision has built 2 rifles for me so far and they shoot just like yours. Tim is one hell of a gunsmith and great to work with. Thanks again for hooking me up with him.

Am I seeing that correctly, McMillan but no checkering? Its part of the custom fit/finish Tim does on the stock.....he fills in the checkering and hand finishes the entire stock for smoother lines and contours.

300 - I like the beer choice. Next time I'm in Pitt for work, we'll have to grab a beer.
I'm so impressed with the groups - with factory ammo! Have you built up any loads (not that you need to)?
