[QUOTE="Darryl Cassel, post: 6218, member: 34"] [b]Re: \'Tis a crock of excrement and it stinketh..[/b] Jake That rifle shot some decent groups in 1000 yard compititions when it was a 300 Weatherby. When I put it up for sale in the beginning, Chris (the new owner) wanted it to be a 300 RUM Improved Tomahawk. I took it to the gunsmith to have that done. The day he finished rechambering it and he fired the test rounds, I sent it off to Chris who wrote back that he shot groups that were 1/2MOA and he thought he could even do better with it? I have "no" idea what happen after that to the rifle. The rifle was only rechambered and nothing done to the brake at all. If there was a burr, it would have had to be there while Chris shot his 1/2MOA groups he shot and stated on the forum. The burr would have also been there while my wife was shooting in the matches. I don't think a burr was there , not while I had the rifle. Possibly someone tightened the brake up to tight with a steel rod instead of a brass one? I don't know but, I do know the rifle was fine when it left for it's first new owner. After that I have no clue. DC [/QUOTE]
