[QUOTE="Len Backus, post: 12290, member: 1"] Call Chris Matthews of LongShot Rifles at 816-820-5129. He has done several recent projects for me. The latest one I shot for the first time this afternoon. I had him re-barrel a rifle he built for me some months ago. That rifle shot very well and I just this week had him put a shorter, lighter barrel on it. So this afternoon I first fired about ten rounds as I worked up to a safe max velocity. Then I cleaned it and shot 3 fouling rounds. After that my second variant of powder weight resulted in a 3-shot, 100 yard group of 3/8 inches. I then fired at my 500 and 700 yard targets where I got 1/3 moa vertical groups in a switching wind. [ 10-08-2004: Message edited by: Len Backus ] [/QUOTE]
