[QUOTE="elkaholic, post: 1141673, member: 13833"] Man Nils, what are you going to do for an encore! 1100 yards for first blood is going to be a little tough to beat.Congrats on the buck and a pretty impressive shot. That is a REALLY nice looking rifle. I think my next build is going to be something light and I like some of your components. The only flaw that I see is the bolt seems to be sticking out of the wrong side of the action:D Thanks for all the kind words, but it was my pleasure working with you. It really is enjoyable for me to be able to help in some way to see all these various builds take shape and then see the results in the field. On top of that, I have had the privilege to chat with some really nice guys who love the sport as much as I do. You have had some pretty impressive results so far with very little load development. Have you tried that same load with the bullets closer to lands? Sometimes you can tighten the vertical up just by doing that; not that there is anything wrong with what you have doing right now. Keep in touch and let me know if there is another coues deer down there that needs shooting!:D.........Rich [/QUOTE]
