After yesterdays trip to the range to do some load developement on a few customer rifles and shoot a few of our own I thought we ought to have a post with groups that make you go awww:D

Here is one to get it started 3 shot group @ 100 yards Snowy MTN Rifle first load I tested out of the rifle:D

Heres the specs on "Shrek"

This 338 Lapua Rifle tips the scales at 9.5 LBS. We used a Proof research Carbon Wrapped barrel, SMR single shot action, SMR SS 20 MOA Rail, Mcmillian M40-A stock, SMR Muzzle Break. Cerakoted OD Green Barreled action to match the stock.

Both groups were about 5" off point of aim so I was happy with that.

McMillan A3 stock
CSR muscle brake
Jewell trigger
Nightforce 5.5-22x50
