I gather after all that work and since it shoots a tight group as you've mentioned that I take it you glass bedded the barrel? Made it free floating? Now all you need to do is get a spent cartridge and get the specs from it, reduce it by about 2 thousandths (think that's the amount I heard on this show I watched) and reload your own. Get that group down even more and set them shots one on top of the other. G_Meister

That's quite a transformation...great job, indeed! It's always sweet to have a enjoyable and precision shooting rifle.
