willhunt4coues Report post Posted June 1, 2014 I have now shot 6 groups and they all were 1/4 inch. Will be testing them at 300 this evening. Have a bunch loaded for a ladder test. Hoping 41.9 is my load if not a little tweaking will need to be done. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
out2hunt Report post Posted June 1, 2014 Very sweet rifle! What's it weigh, if you don't mind me asking? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
willhunt4coues Report post Posted June 2, 2014 Don't know yet. I would say right around 12 lbs. Its not bad really. I expected it to be more. Valdada scopes are really heavy you put on a lighter scope and you would save a pound or 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Couzer Report post Posted June 2, 2014 Looks like your measuring outside to outside, so I think they are even better than .25"? Or I could be looking at the pic wrong, nice shootin! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kingzero Report post Posted June 5, 2014 Very nice! I built my 260 on a long action for versatility. I have taken it to 1070 yards so far. I want to build another one in 300 Blackout for close quiet fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cohntr6 Report post Posted June 6, 2014 Thanks for the number breakdown. Looks like the next one may be cheaper because you have tools now. Keep the target pictures coming Jeff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
