Got it last month and went to the range and shot Factory Hornady ammo with the 130 interlock bullet, not the superformance stuff. I shot 5 rounds with the first one on a clean barrel and four more that came in at 1/4 inch group. The rifle performs great and feels great also. This is a 270 win. that I will mainly use to hunt whitetails here in Alabama and Tenn.It has a #3 contour 24 inch Shilen barrel HS Stock and a timney trigger. Last edited by Goats260; 05/24/15.

I have a friend who has one of their rifles and has told me I would not regret getting one, he was right I don't know why I waited so long to get it. I ordered the rifle in Jan 2015 and got it in march.

It has a #2 Shilen at 24.5" and a Jewell trigger. It is in 280AI. Brown is covered up and I have no idea as to when I will see it again.

Determined I was displeased with commercial rifles overall and decided to use 100% custom components from that day forward. That was 2006. I took delivery on two customs Dec 2014. I could not be happier. "I never thought I'd live to see the day that a U.S. president would raise an army to invade his own country." Robert E. Lee
