Yeah, I did a poor mans float job on it with a couple of stainless washers. That tightened the group a bit. I hope to get better than 2 inches at 50 yards. Maybe I could hack that at 75. I tried 27 grains of 296/H110 behind a 217 grain cast bullet, but mine didn’t like it, group opened up. I’ve got trigger springs and more jacketed test bullets on the way. I guess we’ll see what happens and make a trip to see Goatwhiskers.
