    NEW From Zermatt Arms - RimX Actions

    Yes it will shoot it. That being said I suppose the chamber you choose to run will have something to do with function and accuracy..mine is a Lilja 2 chamber. Greenmountain barrel 24”, just crowned. Here are some groups with inexpensive ammo at 50 yards..

    First time shooting my own loaded ammo/Report... more advice needed
