[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 957193, member: 4191"] Here's a rundown of my Components: BAT HR with integral Picitanny Rail Krieger CM 9.5 twist, #4 Contour, Finish @ 26" Muscle Mini-Mag Brake Jewel trigger Wyatts Extended Mag Box PTG Aluminum BM Precision Stock Works Rifleman Stock, McMillan Edge technology The barrel and brake were to have been sent out for Melonite treatment. Since my hunting in Alaska is backpack hunting, I lean to reduce weight while maintaining acceptable LRH accuracy. Thus the lighter contour barrel finished at 26", and the lightweight McMillan Edge stock. I've been planning to shoot bullets in the 210 to 230gr weight range. The 215 Berger is getting some positive coverage. Elkaholic reported good MV from his 28" Krieger barrel using RL-33 with 230gr Bergers. I chose the 9.5 twist rate to help ensure bullet stability with bullets up to 230gr. I have some of Elkaholic's 190gr SXR bullets, home-brewed with the Al tips. They were very accurate in my 300 Win Mag, and I've used them on game out of my .300 Win Mag. I think Rich finally received his new Corbin bullet making dies. Given time, I expect he'll home-brew some heavier SXR bullets, especially now that he's getting such good MV with RL-33. [/QUOTE]
