A not so local gunshop has 4 of these , 2 are Laminated and the others are B&C . He has them listed for 830 bucks which seems like a good price, anyone own one of these and if so what powder and bullet are you running?

Thanks in Advance

I’ve got the laminate version. LOVE IT.

I’m shooting Federal 270 BorLoks and BH209 in mine.

It apparently likes those Federal Borelocks . Do you have a holdover type reticle on your scope? Do you use the Remington primed cases as is or do you prime your own?

This gun has a 3x9 VXR Patrol on it with a MilDot reticle. It is also able to be dialed as it has a sorta low profile mil type turret. Haven’t dialed it much to be honest. The reticle works fine out to 300 which is as far as I’ve shot it so far.

I use the Remington cases and reprime them with the same 9.5Ms they come from the factory with. Pretty nice system in my opinion. It shoots Barnes sabots real well.

I spoke to the shop owner this morning 836 for the Synthetic and 867 for the laminated stock model. I will be up there Saturday or Sunday to buy one.

That’s not too bad. I caught mine on sale from Buds for a little over 700 but see they’ve jumped a bit. I think I’d like a better trigger in mine and and maybe some lightening on the laminate stock but it isn’t too bad as it is either.

A little over 700 is a heck of a price. I might switch out the trigger and put in a trigger tech.

Thanks for all the info
