Then continued using the 270 for the last 30+ years.



Can't say it any better than that

Dude......I can get that size group any day of the week by only firing one shot out of a deuce.....better groups, more ammo economy.... grin
That would be the Savage_99 way of shooting. whistle laugh

Here you go, don't need no stinkin' 22 caliber magnum, AI or any of that manly stuff for stunt shooting.

My donor came from the WalMartian house, not the whorehouse.

Here is a couple of 3 shot groups.

Some 5 shot groups for verification.
[Linked Image]

Originally a Remington 700 SPS 223
Montana rifle barrel picked up here,1:9, fluted, 22" and 0.575 at the muzzle
Mickie edge picked up here.
Action skeletonized, timney installed and set at 2 lbs.
Talley LWT's
Went with Leupy 2.5-8
Weighs 6.5 lbs empty

Tried 50gr BT's & TTSX's, 55gr GMX's,& SP, and finally the 65gr Sierra Game Kings before I found a good load.

But I think it may have more to do with the BL-C(2) instead of the Rel 10x.

I have no idea what the velocity is, I will get it checked someday.

This is going to be a truck/ranch/4 wheeler/tractor rifle. I do not do any varmint shooting as in dogtowns. But I like to hunt coyotes, Mt Lions, and shoot coons and skunks at the ranch.

Oh yeah, it is legal to shoot turkeys in SD with a rifle, so that may have to happen at least once.

I have actually thought about that. Believe it or not, I have only one .223 right now, and enough ammo loaded to burn the barrel on it easily....I need another .223..... whistle


Whatever floats ya'lls boat, but I gotta wonder about the whole "doner" deal when there's still old Remingtons that ---->>>>>

Yes, the barrel was fluted strictly for modest weight reduction.

The first 222 I owned was a an absolutely georgous BDL. Way too nice for me to use/abuse. So I sold it to help fund this.

Give it a couple of years and it will not be snazzy. cool

Going to range this morning to dial in the leupy and then it will be off to the ranch to get some work done. There was a coyote out there over the weekend...maybe he will show himself again. smile

Seriously, have you considered just painting it - faux custum? A few years ago it was all the rage!

CB had this Giraffe pattern; it'd be swell on a 27-222 Furbee.

Ingwe, you gotta find someone to do that for you!
