[QUOTE="Greg Duerr, post: 492672, member: 32685"] I plan on sending in my action friday the 1st. I have a McMillan Remington Sporter stock on order now.............So im looking at having the rifle back by sometime around the end of July I do reload and I do realize that the VLD have to be seated way out..........Im just not there yet, when it comes to shooting the VLD's. I called Hornday today and asked about the twist rate for their 75 gr. V-max and they said 1x10 I also called Swift about their 90gr Scirocco and they said that because the bullet it long it would need the 1x10 faster twist rate. For me long range would be 400 yds..............and until I know that me and my rifle feel comfortable and consistant at that range I dont want to look at anything beyond that. So as of today Im looking at the Pac Nor barrel 24inch 1x10 #4 ..........A Sako extractor. Thats about the extent of my limited knowledge and experiance. When you talk about anything beyond that I get lost. When I had my CZ 527 re-barreled from a 22 Hornet to the .19 Badger and was getting .291 five shot groups ...........I got real interested in Long Range shooting and the thought of five shots touching. That was never ever a thought in the past. I do need some more input and advice.....................What Scope and has anyone out there used or seen Darrll Hollands ART reticle. What bases and rings do you recomend. I have use S and K bases and rings..........for their light weight Well that's were Im at now.....................maybe in the future I will try the VLD's and if we have a banner year on jackrabbits, I might be looking for a new barrel....... In the past when shooting ground squirrels on alfalfa fields I had one day when shooting a 22 Hornet and a .221 fireball that 660 rounds were fired ............that was a long day. Greg [/QUOTE]
