Picked it up from my gunsmith on Weds and managed a few hours range time yesterday. Only thing missing is the S&B 3-20 that I'm still waiting on along with everyone else. In its place in my PH 3-15 and Badger rings that I borrowed from my .308.
Shot some reloads (5 shots at 100yrds) using the 140amax and H4350 41.5-42.0grs.
specs:
Stiller Tac30
Brux 26in SS MTU 1/8 w/Holland brake
Manners T4A with mini chassis
Jewell trigger
Atlas bipod

That thing shoots terrible! I'll give you $450 to take it off your hands so you don't have to deal with it though...

I used the Hornady brass. I didn't get a chance to try and form any other brass yet.
 
Re: First custom build..6.5Creedmore

Great shooting. I love the 6.5CM, it feels like I'm shooting a BB gun out to 1000

It has been very happy with the Berger 140 VLD's and H4350.
