[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 64168, member: 10"] Goodgrouper, The 300 gr ULD RBBT Wildcat Bullets are listed at $70.00/100 bullets Canadian pricing. THis is also 2004 prices so you would have to contact Richard for current pricing. In my Kahn the Sierra Mk would average right at 1 3/4" for three shots at 500 yards, the Wildcat ULD averaged about 1 1/3" so there was a noticable difference in my rifle at least. Makes the slight extra cost well worth it in my opinion. [img]http://www.hunt101.com/img/244938.jpg[/img] [img]http://www.hunt101.com/img/244946.jpg[/img] This is really the only sign that the APS V-Block rifle is not a conventionally bedded rifle, the three mounting screw holes in the forend. All screws behind are simply dummy screws that do nto contact anything. [img]http://www.hunt101.com/img/260525.jpg[/img] As you can see there is nothing to tell this is not a conventionally bedded rifle. The main reason I designed this system was to keep the scope low on the receiver, I just could never get consistant without a solid cheek weld.
