It groups Remington 180 grain PSP Core Lokts into nice 3 round clusters. I'd like to have one just like it in .270, but with a 6X Lyman. Bob Last edited by RGK; 02/24/13.

I'm left-handed, but this one will stay after the lefty bolts disappear. I'd like to find another like it, in .270. I will, eventually. Bob

Lot of fond memories with that gun. I purchased it used in 1968 before I got drafted and did not get a chance to bloody it until after I was discharged. Over in far distance lands my mind would go to that rifle many times. It was bloodied on an Ontario Moose. You're Welcome At My Fire Anytime

It returned last week after finally getting bedded. It's a joy to handle, well balanced and a hair under 8lbs as pictured. I should have time to get it to the range tomorrow.
