matchking Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Well i have finally got my swift stocked after a bit of arsing around.Basicaly Gary cane let me down big time on the stock.And russ gall got me out of the shite big time.Russ very kindly took a mc millan A5 off his own personal rifle for me to fit to my rifle.I have to say i had my heart set on a laminate thumb hole stock but after fitting the mc millan i must say it is a thing of beauty.I just hopes it shoots as good as it looks.Once again a massive thanks to russ.

6mmBR Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 I called in today to have a look at Seans new rifle. It is superb, what a crying shame those actions are not being made any longer. Anyway here are a couple of pictures. Sorry for the quality as they are off my phone. Sean is out testing it tomorrow so hopefully we will get a report on how it shoots.

matchking Posted March 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 Nice...... Sean.....you want bitch slappin for putting warne rings on a combo like that ! I have to admit warne rings weren't my first choice for rings.But i was a little bit limited to what i could get in 34mm med.Would love some shiney rings but can't find any at the moment.I might in time fit some davidson bases and kelbly rings.I just hope the bloody thing shoots now.

David Hancock Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 Sean, very nice. Very clean. I'm inspired to save for a .20Tac in the same style. Enjoy. Best regards. David. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matchking Posted March 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Well i went out to do break the barrel in and do some test loads with the swift today.I was using norma brass H380 and 52gr bergers.I started by getting on the paper at 50 yards.Whilst breaking the barrel in and rough zeroing i shot about 5 one hole groups.Only fifty yards i know but i thought this shows promise.So back to 110 yards to try the test loads.The first group with 41.5gr produced a nice round half inch group.Next group two bullets in one hole the other 3 slighttly scatterd,Strange but not to worry.I have found the sweet spot to normally be 42.5/43gr.So next up 42.5gr 3 in one hole. 2 in the other?Finally 43gr a nasty 1 inch group.Hmm not exactly over the moon i packed the kit up.Whilst driving home i was thinking that the old faithfull 52gr a max might be an improvement.When i got home i thought i would clean the rifle i grabbed out of the case by the scope only to find the scope loose.The screws in the piccatiney rail were loose.So basicaly i done £20 on fuel and another £10 on bullets and brass and i still don't know what my swift shoots like.But i think it shows promise and i will try and shoot it again tomorrow.On the upside WALES won the GRAND SLAM ATB SEAN.
