I guess the factories actually got this one right- unlike all the stupid 1:14 22-250 barrels out there!


I totally agree about the CZ factory getting it right. Along with proper glass bedding, my rifle shoots lights out:

After it was dialed in on the bull, I fired 10 more downrange:

The 286gr. partition is also a freight train on critters. It just keeps going and going:

I like the 9.3x62 so well that I've thought about having JES rebore my classic sporter 30-06 to one. I wonder what twist rate they use? Anyone know???
