Not bad for a 1st time low budget build that's for sure.

Thanks. Once we get her dialed in we'll see if the weight was worth it!

So all set up rifle weighs in at 13.8lbs. first fires and barrel  break in done. Using 88gr US869 and seated 50thou of lands with 127gr lrx. Rifle shows alot of promise. 3/4 inch average grouping. Cases prepped and ready to work up some more speed and hopefully more accuracy :IBCOOL:

Well. I figured out radial brakes aren't for hunting rifles. The dust kick up annoyed me too much. I picked up an Erik Cortina EC tuner with a baffle brake. Hopefully will help get me zeroed in soon.

You do a seating test or just waiting for tuner?  Never would of thought that powder with a light bullet be interesting to see results.

Keep experimenting I would expect cloverleafs at 100 out of that setup when dialed in.

Didn't do much load development yet. 3/4 group was good enough for hunting last year. I planned on finding OCW then play with lands. Then fiddle with the tuner.
