Whelen Away: This looks to be a good one. I shot it field prone at 300 yards earlier this week and slopped 3 into 3". That was with 100 gr NPT.
I have a bunch of empty brass that I'll load up with BT's. The rifle seems to like that bullet.
At any rate the rifle is a lot more agreeable than earlier ones Ive owned but this is the first one with that Guarantee accuracy tag hanging from it...so maybe they are paying more attention these days.
Seems like they got that one right.
I just took delivery on a Montana in 6.5CM
It was used (2-weeks, and 20 rounds) and the owner said it shot better than anything else in his safe. Mostly 1/2"-3/4" in that first box of 143gr Hornady ELDX. But he said he was a 30 caliber guy and after the way this one shot he just wanted to buy a Montana in 308. Hoping it shoots as well for me.
I wish it was a Classic Select though. I appreciate the utility of synthetic, but I
love a rifle with nice wood.
When they finally make the 6.5CM in a Classic Select, maybe I'll make a trade. Or if this one shoots that good, maybe I'll just buy one outright.
