Are you in the Calgary area? Why not come out on June 12 to the Rosebud range? We are having a Varmint for Score shoot. You don't have to be a member and it will be an informal match, ie no BRSC membership required. Also, I encourage everyone to use their name, either in their posts or in their "handle".

I've known 3 people that have or had one. They all shoot very well. Once you have a load worked up for them, 5 shots @ 100yds under .5" is no problem and they are consistent. Remington is trying.

I've had one for around three years. It started out as a 22-250, shot like a hot dam, but after 600 rounds its accuracy went south. last year I rebarreled it with a Pac-Nor 28" 6mm 1:8 heavy palma in 6mmbr .272 nk 104fb and bedded it in a robertson/masterclass M1000 stock, GTR firing pin kit, shillen BR trigger and sinclair bolt stop and I installed a tactical bolt handle. I've recently cut the barrel down to 22" and my aggs shrunk dramatically. I'm thinking of rebarreling it with a hv barrel in 1:14 and a tighter neck in the near future.
