That's my goal.....whichever charge provides one hole accuracy at 3100+ FPS


Sounds like a candidate for an Echols Legend, standard fill, to me.... whistle

Like this one? This was to be the last rifle I ever built...I have since had some thoughts about a custom Mauser and a walking varmint rig, but this is my primary big game rig when the chips are down.
I use the 165 AB on deer and the 200AB on anything bigger. Both work very well and the accuracy and consistency are great.
Specs on the gun are as follows: 24" Rock #3 barrel( have a fluted Rock #3 waiting for the current tube to burn up), Echols Legend edge left natural, Jewell trigger at 1.5lb, Talley LW, Williams bottom metal, Williams extractor, Wisner bolt release,Sunny Hill supergrade style sling studs, Zeiss Diavari Victory 2.5-10X42mm.
