It's not engraved "Mountain Rifle" but not counting the 600, it's the lightest in the safe. Plain Jane SPS 243 with TLW's purchased from a fellow campfire member. Robbed the VX3 off the 600, shot three groups to check the 105's, bedded the action and shot three more to find the load. I guess I am looking for another donor now.

Just a VX1 3-9 I took off an encore. Started with running 165 AB's over 55.6 gr IMR4350. Got dark on me so I couldn't shoot a group nor chrono after I got it on paper. Recoil was much less than expected, maybe my load is anemic. I think it is the latest version; it will wind up at Bull Mtn Rifles in Billings for at least a Mickey game scout or rem classic later. I thought hard before getting the 06 and not 308. Still wondering if I should have gone 308.
