Well done! That's an excellent group and a very good price for any rifle that shoots that well!

How much does it weigh?

I would take a guess as it sits in the above pic, with the bipod and without optics. Close to 10lbs?

yes you fire 280 rem and it fire forms the standard 280 rem into 280 AI. And yes that is a very reasonable price!

Goes in looking one way, comes out looking another!!

Are these guns being built to order, or are you building guns which you think will sell quickly? I would love to walk into a shop and see something like that sitting at the counter. :tup:
