Re: long range 243

NIce rifle sir. I love to see the .243's get built up. With the right bullets those .243's are beasts. Hope my factory bbl will do good with the 105 amax's I bought with it.
 
Re: long range 243

that group was cold bore the day after breakin with sierra 85gr bthp... the day before my gunsmith ran the breakin bullets threw her and then shot 3 round group all threw the same hole..with 87gr vmax.. so work your loads and find out what the rifle likes

Looks dark grey from here on the east coast.

You may want to try some 105's. I've got a feeling they'll shoot very well out of your rifle.

You are correct sir, guess my eyes were playing tricks on me last night.

Now that I am looking at the rifle again, I am really digging the bolt knob and fluting. Again, nice job.
