I'd seriously recommend someone shoot this before making it a donor. Every .243 Model 700 I've ever owned shot ridiculously small groups.

I have a brother to it, another .243 leftie BDL from that first run. It shot bughole groups with boring regularity up until the throat got so bad that you couldn't touch the lands with a 100 grain bullet and have it inside the case.

Was going to shoot this one but decided to rebarrel the other one. It's at the gunsmith right now getting a factory barrel from a CDL installed. Have decided to mostly get rid of duplicated chamberings in my rifles, so this one is up to hopefully make someone else a very nice shooter.


Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery.
Hit the target, all else is twaddle!
