[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 1450538, member: 68875"] For a hunting rifle, the CA would be a decent choice. But, at $1.8-2k plus scope, it would be more cost effective to rebarrel your current rifle. But, then you would still only have 1 rifle. How important is an extra .1" to you? I know this is a small test size, but see below. The CA liked 160s a lot. The custom shoots 160, 168, and 175s extremely well. CA Ridgeline .280AI load development. 3 shot group after workup during final sight in.
