I made a mistake. The Redding BR seater is actually the Redding Type S Full Bushing Die "SET".

Thank you. I built it the way I wanted it built. It's a super good, light weight shooter. Want to try a 300 PRC next. Alan

Strange that people will pay stupid money for a factory rifle that may or may not shoot, but not even give a sniff to a good custom that's offered for well under what it would cost to build one for. Plus having to consider the price increases on all the parts across the board, shipping prices taking another hike, product availability, or lack there of, and wait times needing more than a 1 year calendar to keep track of.

Yeah it's sad. I'm thinking about gunbrokering a fieldcraft just for that reason and buying this. If someone wants to pay me 3K for that thing and I can get a sweet custom like this, then it's a no brainer to me.

This is a great specific purpose rifles and an amazing value. I think it is not a good time to sell these types of rifles. Maybe June-July time frame. When the elk blood gets flowing these rifles will sell.

How does it shoot? any target pics? I'm at work, Barnes Bullets. I have a pic of a 4-shot, 1000 yd group, yanked the 5th shot. IIRC, it's 1/2 moa. I'll post it this evening when I get home. Alan
