[QUOTE="esshup, post: 2089789, member: 11101"] Kirby, it's good to see you finally come up for air. You built a 7mm Allen Mag for me back in 2009, it's the one with the black Manner MCS-GAT stock that is pictured on your website. It's still a shooter, and I don't shoot it enough. Longest kill to date is a clean cold bore shot at 867 yds on a coyote after not having it out of the safe for about a year. I was at your place not too long after you moved into the house, round river rock driveway near the house and all. :) I recently switched to using RL-50 powder in the gun, and with the 195g EOL bullets they are running right at 3225 fps with an ES of 6. If I do my part the gun is still shooting 1/4 moa after just under 600 rounds thru the tube. You also put a small Pain Killer brake on my .257 Weatherby to replace the radial brake that was on it when I bought it. The gun is a completely different gun to shoot compared to the one that I have that isn't braked. Now I need a brake for my Savage Muzzleloader, and I just don't know what one to order. I'm shooting a 300g .45 caliber bullet @ 2900 fps (no sabot), the muzzle OD is 0.845". The recoil is just too much and I need something to tame it. I can thread the barrel, I just need to know what one will work the best. Help!! Thanks again for building such an accurate rifle. [/QUOTE]
