I plan to get it stretched out some this week, at least to 500.

Made it out to the range in time to play on 500yd steel.
The 3 shot groups were 1.5-2” after I fouled the clean barrel at 100.
Same mild load used previously.
I am certainly pleased.

I’ll be getting the barreled action cerakoted when I can part with it long enough.

 

[Phil Rizzo]

More 500 yd play, maybe it’s tightening up some? Shots 46-48.
I’m excited to pressure up when this brass is 1x

Loving mine so far. I had my freebore set at .185” instead of the normal .120”. Still runs everything in a short action. Settled on 135 Berger and N565. 19.5” bbl at 3020

I ran a pressure test/ ladder with R23 and 135 LRHT today, went to 3216 with 58grs. Going to run some at 56grs/3103 next week on doe.
I intend to try n565 next.

I changed the barrel from a Brux 5 to a benchmark sendero light CFW, and added .080 FB.
