Will Munny: We all got it coming, kid.

If I get up to da UP, and can get some loads sorted out, a VZ24(Czech M98) with a Brownells 6.5 x 55 barrel in a Bell and Carlson glass stock. After I had the barrel headspaced it shot pretty well so I invested in a blueing job. Then groups opened up for no apparent reason. Scope, base and stock screws all torqued. Back to load workup. It's shooting minute of deer, but I'ld like to see some better groups. Last edited by Aagaardsporter; 10/16/22. Reason: add
