[QUOTE="112Savage, post: 2486032, member: 38801"] I put one together with a Proof steel 18" barrel and a luthAR fixed (non-adjustable) buttstock and adjustable gas block. Hornady Black shoots terrifically and I've shot that out to 928 yards I hit a doe at 332yds with the hornady precision hunter, she required a second shot due to my first being low through her front legs just below the brisket. The second shot was at <100 yds and did not exit on a quartering away shot though the shoulder but dropped her immediately. I've handloaded 105gr speer hot cores with CFE223 and couldn't get much over 2500fps without seeing damage on case heads I finally got some leverevolution and 400 speer deep curl 80gr. they're going just under 2900fps with the max gas gun load. Those are tough little booger bullets. They went through a 6" creosote bridge timber, 5/8" plywood, and 5" into hard packed dirt. I built this rifle specifically for deer culling so it will mostly see the lighter bullets. When I want to try it at longer range I will work with the Leverevolution and 103-108gr bullets. [/QUOTE]
