Tim1 Posted April 9, 2017 Report Share Posted April 9, 2017 Thanks Andy, you've produced a great rifle for me and it continues to shoot well although the load I'm using is a 162 A-Max/H4831 combo rather than a factory load. I'm expecting to be passing at the end of this month or during the first week of May at the latest to collect the McHunter. I hope to be in touch soon to arrange. Kind regards, Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srvet Posted April 9, 2017 Report Share Posted April 9, 2017 Hi Tim A lovely rifle Any chance you could share the load data on the 162/h4831 as Andy has just rebarreled my RM so almost certainly the same reamer and I have always used 4831,though with 162 SST. Of particular interest would be where/if you encountered pressure signs. Just gives me a starting point Cheers Simon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim1 Posted April 11, 2017 Report Share Posted April 11, 2017 4Simon, At the moment, I'm using the remnants of the ammunition that I had loaded up for my previous factory Remmy which by chance seems to shoot well in this Stiller. It's a top load of 64 grns with the bullet 30 thou off. I'll post some more photos of my rifle once we get into May when I've got the McHunter bolted on. Good luck, Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim1 Posted May 17, 2020 Report Share Posted May 17, 2020 Well, it's taken a while but here are some photos of the finished article dropped into my McSwirley. (That's providing that I've managed to work out how to post the photo links. Hopefully they'll work.) Thanks again Andy for building a great tool. It's a half MOA performer with the right load.

Tim1 Posted May 21, 2020 Report Share Posted May 21, 2020 Thanks Andy, It would be nice to have a matching set up in .25-06 or .270 but I can't see Mrs. B going with that idea any time soon. Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
