[QUOTE="James H, post: 247463, member: 5449"] Here is my first attempt at an aluminum tensioned tube. [IMG]http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p192/james_hx/TensionTube.jpg[/IMG] I was experimenting here so I didn't true the receiver before installing the barrel and it was amazing how the bullets would walk right down the target as the barrel heated up. This one was a 7mm SAUM. I have since done 2 more the second in a 6BR and the third in a 6mm Creedmoor. I have not shot the last on yet but the 6BR showed enough promise to do another I abandoned the 6BR because it is a 10 twist barrels and I wanted to shoot heavier bullets than it would stabilize but it did shoot the 87 V-maxes well.
