[QUOTE="Ernie, post: 520721, member: 13"] I thought this would be finished and ready to roll for the MOA comp, but I didn't have the time to get the load tweaked, so I shot the 7mm SAUM. This is a center-grip XP, built by Mac's Gunworks, chambered in 6.5 Leopard (Norma 270 WSM brass necked down to 6.5). Benchmark 1-8 twist barrel, Modified H-S stock (Cerakote paint job by Mac's Gunworks), Dell trigger, Mac brake. S&B 4-16 (Holland's all MOA ART Reticle). H-1000, Fed 210M's, and 130 Berger's. MV should be around 3000 fps or so--not chronoed yet. I call it the "Pink Panther." This is one of the 5-shot groups at 100 yards that Chuck shot off the bi-pod and small leather field bag. Measured .402 lightbulb He also was smacking steel at 500 some as well. This is my first Benchmark barrel, and I am going to like it a lot, I can tell.
