actually that one is identical to mine. Its skip line cut checkering. The very early bdls had pressed checkering and so did the adl but i dont think they every made any heavy barreled guns that early in production.

I've got one of these. It's a 1971 model and is 99%. Shoots one hole groups with factory Superformance 58gr v-max. I also have one in 22-250 that shoots .5 moa and I've never tried to work up a load. Awesome old guns.

I would appreciate if you guys that get the tiny groups please post your load receipies as well as seating depths for bullets ( or COAL) you found most accurate. Yes these old guns can really shoot.

Mine likes 85 gr sierra with 40.0 gr imr 4350 at 2925 fps= .25" at 100 yds

working on 60 gr sierra with h380 and varget powder looks promising even smaller groups.

thanks

ODAVID- while there are several; lapua brass, 85 sierra bthp, 37.5 of I4064 . 030 off. about the same with 37 or 38 of varget also. these loads have shot good in more than a half a dozen remingtons and three sakos.
