Picked up a 1/18 twist barrel 1.250 strait Kreiger for $325 in Canada,bought a Rem 700 sold new barrel so action net was $ 400 was down south and sent action to GreTan rifles and he did a great job truing, and bushed firing pin hole as well put in a light firing pin. Picked up a old wood 40x stock, bedded it.
Prepped some Lapua brass, neckturned them and sent 3 brass to Manson to make me a reamer. Had VX systems Ian Robertson put it together
only could get Berger 115 gr and some 4198 powder and worked load at 3050 fps shot a 5 shot group at .131" had a 8 to 32 x Sightron and have now upgraded to a 10 by 50x Sightron
here are results shot at 200 yards at a 100 yard hunterclass target
Will have to do some work to get it down to HV Varmint class,lighter stock and maybe cut barrel back its at 26"
