I'm kind of curious what kind of first round groups people are getting with their custom builds. After sighting in my build, I proceeded directly into shooting 9 groups of 5 rnds. For the money I had invested into the barreled action, I feel pretty good about it overall. Oh yeah, that was my "break in" procedure.

This barreled action is a;
Trued Rem700
24" Bartlein ss M40/24 11.25 5R .308
RAD Rapid brake
Holland oversized recoil lug
Timney trigger
mounted into an AICS 2.0 w/ NF NXS

I would be very happy with that anyday. How about a pic of the rifle. Congrats!!

Nice groups.
Let us know more detail, ie: Barrel length, twist rate, ammo, reloads or factory, if you get a chance.
