[QUOTE="ccsykes, post: 938685, member: 2288"] I was asked to do all the break-in and load development for a family member's new rifle built by Mark Gordon. I, myself, own a SAC 260 as my main shooting rifle and expected this gun to be quite similar. Mark never fails to impress: [URL=http://s1115.photobucket.com/user/graysloan1/media/image-51.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1115.photobucket.com/albums/k557/graysloan1/image-51.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Receiver-Alpha 11 with integrated lug and rail Stock-temporary until the correct color comes. McMillan A5 sporter fill Barrel-26" Bartlein M24 contour fluted with surefire SOCOM (suppressor en route) Trigger-Jewell 1 pound with bottom safety Bipod-Atlas V8 quick disconnect Bottom Metal-Black Ops DBM All metal cerrakoted with brushed stainless color. Scope-Vortex Razor (jury is still out on this optic with me) It is warming up here in Eastern NC and the wind has knocked off considerably since last Sunday when I was shooting a mile. Loads were tested with lapua brass, CCI br2 primers, reloader 17 (41-45gn) with Berger 140gn hybrids, COL 2.870. All loads were under 0.5" at 100 yards with bipod and rear bag, best load being the one below, measuring just over 0.12 ctc.
