Any range reports to tell yet.
Nothing yet, loaded up 15 tounds with 43.5 grains of h4831sc to go and zero rifle, break in a little bit and get a feel for the rifle. These were loaded with 105 a max's since i have a bunch. I noticed after i drilled and tapped my case the other day this is short throated, so here soon i wil go and ream the throat out further for the dtac's. I will post pics of the groups thrown together with the 105's. I loaded them about .002 to .003" from lands.
 
Well i decided on 45.8 grains h 4831 sc here is a group at 715
Bipod, prone from the ground with a bag. Bever had this load over a 100 yards before this

I thought so. The virtical was no more than 2 " i am happy with that. So use to shooting my 338 norma that shooting something this easy and with such little recoil it throws me off.
 
This was a early on group with 105 amaxes at only 2800 fps when i was just trying to sight in the rifle

Oh that's terrible. You should send the rifle to me so I can do some load work and see if it can ever be made to shoot. :D

Great job on the build. Great shooting. Enjoy.
 
I know it is a terrible group, but i think i may give it a chance and see what i can do with it. I put on long range shoots in eastern wa. So i am hoping to play along with the small game courses this winter.
