[QUOTE="cajun, post: 1374484, member: 9772"] I finally shot my Cabelas special 200$ 12FCV. Even with the crappy stock it was sub moa with Hornady black 140 for 5 shots and FGMM 130 berger. Surprisingly the Hornady 129 gr american whitetail load with the 129 gr SP was about 1/2 moa for 3 shots and about 3/4' for 5. shot a deer with it the same evening. Barrel cleaned easily with no evidence of copper build up. Now to find a stock that's not too heavy for hunting but stable enough for long range target shooting. Any suggestions? Eventually it will be re barrelled but if it will hold sub moa at longer range with handloads maybe not for a while. I will say it is a joy to shoot in a 10# rifle in 6.5 creedmoor. [/QUOTE]
