But I take my crow and fox shooting seriously , so I had LRP solutions put something together for me , his sevice and attitude is second to none . It's a stiller diamond back with cone bolt face , mcmillan prone stock ( perfect for shooting out the window ) cg Jackson trigger and 2 6brx barrels 1 is an 8 twist 28 inches long for a bit of fclass open
the other a 14 twist 23 inches long perfect for those varmints :D look forward to shooting it this week end ( yes it's purple ) 8)

Well Mark, i am starting to think you are turning into AI. Build a terrific rifle and then sell it. Since i seem to buy your hand me downs, and then sell them back to you, i like this one a lot.
I expect it will shoot as good as it looks. Have fun Sunday.

With a little load development no seating depth checks just throw em together with a case almost full of 2207 we came up with this , 10 shots at 200 yds ,58 vmax at 3880 , it shot better with copperheads but as good as they are I've found them not real good on pigs and being a one gun man (sought of) I like to cover most bases with the one bullet , no doubt the 58.s will struggle on bigger pigs but for everything else they will be fine
