Back in October after exchanging emails with Kirby we settled in on building a maxed out version of his Raptor LRSS to support his wildcat the 300 Raptor.
We settled in on a 34" 1:8.5 5R Bartlien barrel, his Raptor Action and an A5 super Mag stock with a 7-35 sitting on top!
Initial performance numbers weren't what we wanted topping out at 3260 with Bertram brass with the 245gr Berger! Underwhelming to us but still very impressive....Kirby did some exploring with Peterson brass and did this pay off big.
We had concerns being able to really stoke the fire under the Big Berger's if they'd even survive this Raptor's new found velocity potential!
Tested out to 1060 yards the final load finished up with the 245gr doing 3380FPS!!!
