Hey Josh, nice score on the rifle and caliber!  One of my first rifles was an Interarms Mark X in 25-06. I've had her over 36 years and she's still one of my favorite go to guns. You'll love the caliber's versatility. Have fun!

I haven't shot it yet sadly. Getting there. Hopefully in the next couple weekends I'll get to shoot it.

The 512 trigger is what I put in it.
great trigger. Same one in my 700 26" heavy.

This rifle is heavier than I was hoping but I don't think it's too bad.

11 pounds 6 ounces on the scale ready to roll.

I thought I'd like to take mine deer hunting, but when I pick it up and sling it over my shoulder, I always opt for my lighter version 700!

Dang that's a sweet rifle. Thanks for sharing.

I've got loaded ammo now along with some bullets, brass, primers and powder. Now  I got to figure out how to put them all together. Looking like I just might get some trigger time this weekend.

Shots #3, 4, and 5 out of the rifle with some reloads a friend gave me. 100 grain Sierra spitzers(old/vintage bullets I think). Is this good?



I've got some HSM ammo with Berger bullets here I'll try once it cools off.

That's a crummy through the spotting scope pic at 100 yards. I'll post better later.
