[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 143636, member: 8843"] Well , your stock is good but I'd still bed it even though Kevin's bedding blocks are well made they can't be made a tight as a good bedding job. The Factory barrels are typicaly pretty accurate. To be able to ring the most velocity out of that round you need at least a 24-26" barrel , they can still be made light weight with the thinner conture. I'd look for a 26" barel in #3-4 conture and chambered in 243 Ackley if you reload , have the chamber cut for the 75gr V-max that case with that bullet would make a fine 500yd coyote round. I'd get a new recoil lug from SSS and maybe have the action "timed" How does it shoot right now? do you hand load? [/QUOTE]
