[QUOTE="John Klingenberg, post: 1646542, member: 107749"] Very nice setup. If you sell it I just need the barreled action so I can open the bolt face for the Valkyrie case. They are a ton of fun to shoot. Subs are useless on deer, they punch right through like they've been shot with a bow and run off. A boutique bullet like Lehigh or something may do better. The standard 150-175 doesnt expand well either. I shot 15 deer last year for farmers with the blackout. I went back to my 6br instead. I just ordered some 125s to try at super velocities. I tried one cast load with 130gr gas check that showed promise at the range but I haven't shot any deer with it yet. I custom made some 220gr round nose and drilled a cavity down to the cannelure, they worked well on a porcupine and a couple of coyotes. My Ruger is a tack driver in blackout with almost any load I feed it. It loves H110. If mine had the AR magazine set up Id use it as my donor action. 700s have more options though. Thanks for the pic. That's a nice rifle. [/QUOTE]
