That .688 group is SWEET! There are a lot of cartridge guns that can come nowhere close to that! It would be interesting to chrono that load.... I will bet it produces BIG power and a flat trajectory.

I haven't. 63 & 64 seem to be working good. If I get time this weekend I'm going to get out to 2, 3, & 400 yards, so we'll see how that goes. I'll bump up if I need to

the adjustment under the forearm is a black, smooth headed screw that is locked in place with a very tiny set screw. if you back the smooth headed screw out a tiny bit this will tighten up the forearm and also the tightness of the action or union between the action and barrel. My conversion needed adjusting and my 6.5 creedmoor scout was already good and tight. It can really make a difference in accuracy. It takes very little adjusting on that screw to make a difference in tightening everything up. Here you go Matt, on page 2 Hank and some others mention the same thing it does make a difference I would locktite the set screw with blue 242 when finished the set screw taes a 1/8 allen wrench |
