Scotch_egg Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Very nice, I am really liking the right bolt left port. What profile is the barrel? Get some groups up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weejohn Posted February 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 The stock was ordered in black olive and green. % wise i have not a clue. I believe i may be the first right bolt left port he has done. The barrel profile is a light varmint although it still is a lot heavier than i first thought it would be. Groups will be up as soon as i get some bullets and primers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazzar15 Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Is the scope an IOR?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brown dog Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Here are some pics Very nice (Was the stock straight from Jackson's held stock? Looking at his website today, noticed that every A5 and A3/5 of his had the rear stud or rear flush cup stuck on the bottom of the butt hook . I imagine you'll have to take it out to use a rear rest) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveW Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Looks the nuts WeeJohn, what twist rate did you opt for and what bullets are you planning on trying??? ATB Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weejohn Posted February 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Yes the scope is an IOR, 6-24x50. The stock came direct from mcmillan as russell gets them inletted for his action. I must admit i had never thought about the rear stud but now you mention it, that will be a pain. Its a 1-8 twist and i shall be feeding it mainly on a diet of 105 AMAX. I have 500 coming tomorrow but still no primers yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eldon Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Nice looking rig, I like your stock choice. How do you rate the IOR scope? Thinking about getting one myself, maybe the 3-18 x 42 but I know they got slated a while since on one of the yanky sites for poor durability. What's the lowlight performance like compared to whatever else you've used? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6mmBR Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Looking good. It will be very interesting to see how you get on with your load developement. Keep us informed. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotch_egg Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Where did you get te a-max from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weejohn Posted February 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 I think the IOR scopes are really good. Unfortunately i havnt tried it in low light to comment, only in daylight and under the lamp. Going to start shooting in the barrel tonight. The AMAX came from reloading solutions.

weejohn Posted February 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 After doing my shoot 1 clean for 3 shots i moved on to shoot 5 then clean today. I decided just out of curiosity to shoot at some card to see how the load i flung together for breaking in the barrel would group and to my surprise it was .5" @ 100 yds. I only had an old cushion in the pick up for a rest as i never fitted the bipod so used that on the bonnet. My load development may be over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
