I rebuilt this BDL a few months back for a customer after he wanted something a little more accurate. I think I was able to exceed his expectations on this one! I know a lot of guys will look at the target and say BS, but I have no reason to doubt it, he's a straight forward guy and has no reason to embellish.
Started as a 270 BDL, Blueprinted the action, tuned the ignition, got a new trigger tech Special, new recoil lug, Hart 1-9 twist #5 if memory serves. Pure Precision Altitude, and a Hawkins crown shouldered brake. The metal was cerakoted black.
He has been having issues with ES being out of the ordinary with large spreads. He said it always shot pretty decent 1/2-3/4" even with the ES problem. He worked through a bunch of issues to try and resolve it with the help of some well knowledge friends. He also mentioned some factory Hornady ELDx ammo shot like .4's at 300 yards! After an interrogation yesterday I told him not to change anything but the brass and see if it changes anything. Well...... guess it worked. The gun is shooting above even my expectations.
Same load with other brass.
