And I must say that I'm really impressed! Took me 5 rounds to get it on paper at 100yds only because I wasn't sure where it was shooting until rounds 3-5. Rounds 6-8 could be covered with a quarter.

I'll be on the phone with Kevin tomorrow about getting a stock to replace the factory tupperware. I've got a Vortex Viper 6.5-20x44 on the way, though I'm thinking long term something a bit nicer might be in order.

I was going to rebarrel it to a 7 WSM but as well as it looks like this barrel wants to shoot and the impending release of the long range Accubonds in .277 cal, this might just stay as it is as far as barrel and caliber. It might prompt me to get rid of my 7 WSM X-bolt...but probably not. That rifle is just too pretty to get rid of.
