NF1E Posted January 28 Report Posted January 28 My wife Linda bought this rifle as a birthday present for me about 30 years ago and it has been great. Originally came in a Choate chassis and had an 8.5 - 25 Leupold Mk4 on top of a heavy fluted 26" 1-9 barrel. Added Jard trigger somewhere along the way. Now sits in an MDT LSS-XL chassis and sports a Night Force 15-55x52 Competition scope. Having a ball getting ready for the upcoming shooting season. Barrel was cleaned down to bare metal and has had an HBN coating applied. This rifle has loved Berger 73 gn bullets over 24 gn of Varget in Lapua brass. Whatta Hobby!
NF1E Posted January 30 Author Report Posted January 30 Installed a new Shilen 26" .223 Rem Bull SS ratchet rifled today. Set the headspace to close tightly on a quality .223 go gauge. Whatta Hobby!
