Thanks guys. From a rusty frame to a gun. Of course the manufacturers of components do most of this work. I started breaking in the barrel yesterday. I hope to get to the 100 yard range this weekend and get it set them maybe next weekend get to stretch it out to 400 yards.

Glad you fellers like it. I am going to try to get it sighted in at the 100 yard range Saturday. If the load with the 140gr Partition works out I will scoot out to 300 and 400 next week. I have been working 70-80 hour weeks. It isn't leaving much time for shooting. If the Partition doesn't work I am trying the 140gr Bergers next.
