A sickness you say, maybe since there are no pictures of your bullet groups.

Now I know you are going to "Shoot" it instead of fondling the rifle.

HaYen, it's probably a bit long in the threads to be called a speed breech.

Doc, maybe. wink

UC,

Waiting for the shooting impressions, great article so far!

The styling is a bit high speed, low drag for me...jim

Got the trigger tweaked down to 2 lb 10 oz, clean and crisp. Put the Sightron SII 3x9 on it in Warne QDs using the provided base. Bore sighted it from the kitchen. Gettin' there.

UC,

Your Apex shoots very well indeed, and started shooting well with little load development too.

Is it an Alpha in CVA disguise? wink

Could be, Jim. smile As nice as the Whites are, I don't think even the Alpha could have equaled this rifle.

Doc, without a doubt. Try one, you'll like it! smile

UC,

Speaking of Doc I have been dickering with him for one of his (which should be inbound any day now). One thing I like about ML rifles is the lack of laws and regulations. Since this one qualifies as centerfire capable, I will probably leave it alone.

UC,

I have respect for what you "CVA" shooters have selected for rifles and the accuracy you are achieving with them but I don't need any more rifles.

CVA has certainly raised the BAR on their products. They are nice looking too.

Factoring in the variable crosswind, that is pretty good. Keep us posted. I have begun to have an itch for an Apex.

Batchief's right, I need to try some more sized Trashcans.
