Nice! Have you put the Swarovski through it's paces dialing with the turrets yet? If so, how's it grouping at distance compared to 100 yards?

Chad. I have not gotten past 100 yet but hope to walk it out to 300 today or tomorrow, I'll let you know how it does. It seems to shoot cheap hornady American whitetail 117gr interlocks into cloverleafs but hope to make bug holes with reloads. I have 6 different loads worked up right now with retumbo and 115 partitions.

Good. I'm looking at having a rifle built, and that's one of the recommended stocks for it. It looks good. I've just never had a synthetic stock. Been looking at the marble colors that McMillan offers. I like that adjustable comb, too.
