Had this rifle built two years ago and have just been tickled pink with it.
Trued up 700 in an XLR chassis.
Shooting the 108 Hornady eld-m at around 3080 fps.
Its killed now from shotgun distance to 760 yards. I quit counting at 200 but it has to be approaching 300 coyotes now and I’ve only had five “issues”. Two would have been issues no matter what, just poor hits. One ran about 50 yards before piling up, another was anchored on the spot but alive, and another, who knows. Coyotes are about as tough as they come. He left a few inches of gut behind, and I’m sure had I followed up better he’d have been recovered, but he was heading down a nasty nasty draw, the snow was deep, and what goes down must come up. I didn’t want to confirm it that bad!
If you’re shooting something flavored in 6mm, I can’t say enough good about these 108s!
