I bought one last December and love it. I tried the Hornady 143 but mine shoots the 130 Federal Terminal Ascent better. Happy shooting!
I plan on using those as break in rounds. Then I'll work up a custom load for it.  :)

See AshQ, Pickard knows Pics, or it didn't happen! Let's see the rifle. We need our armament porn.
Unfortunately it's in Washington's stupid azz waiting period jail. I can get 2 supressors bought, paid for and home on guns before I can pick up the actual firearm, literally...Fed background done supressor home in 9 days. I can't bring home the new rifle until the 16th....ugh...
its beyond insanity :bash:

Buy deep before all the new garbage goes into effect i say.  I need a mag bolt faced tikka for a project and a 20ga autoloader then I'm done buying guns in this stupid state. 


Maybe a pmr30. But then I'm definitely done :chuckle:

Built a 6.5PRC on a savage action last year and it is an amazing shooter.  Will be building one more once I find a second Savage action....already have everything else. 

If you want a race care....load it with a 124 grain Hammer Hunter.  I'm getting just under 3300 fps and wouldn't hesitate to take any North American Game Animal with it.  Best group to date was 1/4 MOA 5 shot group......though it it consistently shoots 1/2 MOA. 

Great chambering for sure!!   :tup: :tup:
