[QUOTE="engineer40, post: 1142368, member: 90399"] Thanks! I certainly appreciate all of the nice compliments. EGW makes picatinny rails. For the short action they have a 0 or a 20 MOA rail. But for the long action they only have a 0 MOA rail. I have emailed them about them offering a 20 MOA rail for the LA's but have not heard back yet. I have used Prvi and Remington factory ammo and both shoot well under 1 inch for me. With my reloads I almost always have most holes touching now a days (unless it's a new load I'm trying to figure out). This is the first rifle that I started reloading for so I am by no means an expert. Although I now reload for 6 different rifles. I usually shoot from a bench using a bipod to get those results. I've seen a guy at my range twice now that shoots a 783 in 243 Win. We've talked a bunch about these rifles. He always seems to use a lead sled, not sure why. His rifle is bone stock and he is shooting 1 hole groups every single time with his (at least it seems that way). Hope this helps! :) [/QUOTE]
