[QUOTE="out scoutin', post: 561420, member: 23658"] Nice buck and great shootin'!! I ended up getting the Hawkeye matte stainless/ 26" barrel and then dropping it into a Ruger Compact laminate stock....I know it sounds weird, but it really fits nice when in winter clothing, and makes for a real nice light weight carry rifle. I topped this off with the Swarovski Z-3 4x12x50 with their Ballistic Turret System. A bedding job and tweaked the trigger down to 2-1/2 lbs and she'll now put the first 4 shots into .2"@ 100 with a consistent 5th flyer spreading the groups out to .75" (roughly) . Funny thing is, this rifle shoots better than my target rifle; which shoots pretty awesome in its own right. I too am using 140 Berger VLD's and H-4350..(41grs) The only game I've taken so far has been groundhogs and some mangy coyotes, but they have all been shot with the same load...(all DRT) Deer season opens up soon so I can't wait. I'll post some gun porn soon... Good shootin' johnny [/QUOTE]
