I did my first ever competition recently at camp attebury. Was a mid range 300, 500, and 600 match. I screwed up at 300 yard and adjusted the scope left instead of right. I had never shot beyond 300 before so i was really pleased i kept all shots on paper. Ended up shooting a 542-6x with my best at 500 being a 187-0x with a 8" group.

I am pretty sure i have a burr in my chamber, every case i eject has a knick on the shoulder. I dont feel like sending the rifle in to savage so i ordered a shillen select match stainless 28" barrel. I think it will help with poi movement as barrel warms also.

I ordered 200 new peterson 6.5 creedmoor brass and a annealeez also.

I think my loading will be up to par with the annealer and i think the rifle is plenty capable.
