[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 643009, member: 505"] Scott, I am having a bunch of fun with mine this year playing with bullets that were not available when I did all my work with necking the 8mm rem mag case before it became an STW. 7mm STW brass is a breeze to load. New high bc bullets turn this lazer on to a new level and it was already extremely impressive with the old bullets. The 129 SST has a way higher bc than hornady states. I have been shooting it to 1000 yards this year and it is just amazing with drops compared to my other big rifles. I did not twist this rifle for vld type bullets because there was no such thing when I built the rifle. If you built one and twisted it for todays high bc bullets you would have a screamer. This rifle has a high round count at least near a thousand and is still extremely accurate. So if you take care of it barrel life is not a big problem unless you shoot matches with it. [/QUOTE]
