you can get it there. it takes much work. do a search for mike bellm and steve stratton. you are going to have to relearn to load. i love mine just a ton of work to get it there. bbl, springs, trigger, bedded forend, new loading tools etc. i prefer my cooper, rra, 300 rum remmy and cz. they are easier to load for. I love a challenge that is why I invested the time and money. Mine will shoot .5 moa but it was a feat to get it consistently there. My bbl is a .280. i would think it more of a medium range rig. out to 500. if i am going over that for paper it's my cooper in 6.5x.284. for game the nod goes to the 300rum.
