429mike Report post Posted August 3, 2014 How do you like that tacticool stock? I have been thinking about triing it on a rifle that i have as another option instead of mcmillian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sonof12 Report post Posted August 3, 2014 It needed a bit of shaping around the grip and obviously bedded but I love the feel of it. Haven't shot w it yet - next weekend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

southernxpress Report post Posted August 18, 2014 Looks like your gun should be able to knock down a little whitey with that thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sonof12 Report post Posted August 18, 2014 Update - took it out and tried some new loads this weekend. With Fed mag primers, 67.5 grains of Magpro, and 140 grain Accubonds, it was pushing 3100 fps resulting in 1/2" groups at 100 yards. Good enough for the girls I go with. Thanks to Todd's tutelage (aka Southern Xpress), we started testing its distance and had it repeatedly plinking a basketball sized rock at 650 yards. Next up - doing the same at 1000. Very happy with the setup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
