Well it got warm enough for me to go outside (I'm such a wimp)Ouch
so we took the brothers & my new Beta Master Chrony to the range.
As usual my reloads, Bert & Ernie's design & a good chronograph worked wonders.
(load data & chrony info (some kind of interesting) tomorrow when I finish crunching the numbers)

renamed without the ampersand & posted from photobucket!




The Master Beta worked flawlessly & both load workups were under 1 3/4MOA& 100yd for a 5-round group. Odd as the SD was higher than I think of as "good"?
More info tomorrow when I crunch the numbers.

Shamu, what kind of stock set is that on the #5? I really like the looks! I have a #5 barreled action I'd like to finish with a stock set like yours'.

Its a mix n'match.
The buttstock is a "Bishop" (I'm not sure if they are still in business) & the forend is a Boyds. They also make buttstocks.

It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice!
