[QUOTE="Shortmagman, post: 933736, member: 10723"] I hope to have an answer to that question before the summer is out. I bought a Winchester Model 70 Featherweight some time about 10-12 years ago and for a factory gun it was a tack driver with certain loads. It shot the Factory loaded Winchester 130 grain Silverbalistic tips into less than 1/2 in. (3 shots at 100 yards) the first day I took it to the range. It took me some time to load anything that would match this but, I did develop loads with 140 Nosler Accubonds that matched it or better. I liked the gun so I keep shooting it until I shot the barrel out. I am now having a Bartlein barrel put on the gun. In about 4-5 months I hope I can tell you that this gun with the new barrel is a tack driver. If may not be a full custom gun, but with a Bartlein barrel, Timney trigger, laminated stock, it will be a custom gun for me. [/QUOTE]
