[QUOTE="Ksmirk, post: 318263, member: 6555"] Bud, the rifle is pretty much just something I built for hunting, just got too tired of carrying a 13# rifle. The reamer is just a SAAMI min hand throated with a throating reamer to accept the 162 A-Max at at COL of 3.100" which is right about .010" off the lands, it's a McGowen 1-9 twist barrel with kind of an odd countour they really didn't understand what I was getting at but it turned out when I got it to work great and give the rifle an old feel look, the load per Quickload is a bit on the hot side but I've not seen any signs of pressure and this load shoots great! the last tiem I ran it across the chrony it clocked 3011, 3011, 3008. I can PM you the load but i'd rather not put it out there it might blow someones rifle up and I'd feel terrible. So here's the goodies; Winchester Super X brass Federal GM210M primer Hodgdon Hybrid 100V Hornady 162gr. A-Max COL 3.100" Here's a pic but be nice fella's I'm still learning how to put these thngs together. [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v120/Ksmirk/004-1.jpg[/IMG] The more I think about it an Edge would be cool don't know how much I'd shoot it but it would be cheaper to feed than if I built a 50! Fella's I'm taking it that you enjoy your Edge rifles anyone mind PM'ing me some load information? it would help. Later, Kirk [/QUOTE]
