Thanks guys - Lots of awesome rifle in this thread.
This specific rifle just gets it done. Long live the 22 CF nay-sayers - They haven't a clue -

Thanks guys...
Has anybody ever found that different lots of bullets shoot much differently? I loaded up 90ish rounds of that load tonight, but a different lot of bullets. COAL (measured from base to tip, not very scientific I know) was vastly different than the previous lot. I'm hoping I don't see a huge fluctuation in accuracy and/or drops?

I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

Music wimmens is more fun....grin Everytime I say I will never sell something I end up doing it. But I like this one quite a bit.... Greg, this one isn't quite a Faux-T.i. It's got a kinda' chunky barrel and a Mickey KS stock. So a Faux-KS, I suppose.

Damn nice shooting Tanner. What scope do you have on that bad boy?? I'm in the process of lightening up my FN PBR XP right now. She's sitting in devcon and I'm waiting on a different set of rings. It will be an easier rifle to pack when it's done and just as accurate (I hope )....That aluminum bedding block in the hogue is a heavy SOB....This one is mucho lighter. A little on the cheap, but I don't care : Have one along the same lines, though mine is a 308win..... Am hip on it as a shootin stick.
