Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Custom Rifles & Wildcats It's ready to hunt

RBros 280 AI, Broughton #4, Timney, used to have a McM Hunter's Edge but now wears a newly fluted barrel and new bedded stock - both done by Kampfeld, now it's on me to find a cow and buck.

Since it's a 6x scope I only set the target at 50 yards for verifying zero and testing the load. And yes I'm sure plenty of you are better than me and can shoot itty bitty groups at 100 with your eyes closed. I've shot plenty of sub .3s and even a .189 @ 100, but with this target in particular the crosshair covers up the entire inner green cicle, so 50 it was. Little breezy, nothing bad.



With my handloads, RL26 @ 3120



The surprise was factory Federal 280 Remington 150 NPs, just fireforming the cases and thought I'd shoot one group with them just to see...



Turned it on the steel coyote at 436, no problem. It's ready to hunt.
