I have ordered my next custom rifle build. I jumped on the Alamo Precision Rifle's: "group" Texas Bowhunting Forums rifle build. I'm joining the ever increasing number of shooters going with the .22 Creedmoor !!!! Custom Redding Dies were purchased through Accurate Arms Brass through Alpha Munitions. have some Hornady back ordered. Powder and bullets on hand. I'll be asking for secret, pet, loads from the .22 Creed "under ground"........we dont need no ladder test Optics, I went with the Nightforce SHV 5-20, I'm embarrassed to say what I paid, got lucky!!! Ultra-light rings too. Rifle specs: APR short action Trigger Tech Diamond Trigger Proof Research, 24" carbon fiber barrel, Threaded for suppressor Cant remember the Stock manufacturer, G.G maybe? 100% carbon fiber, I'll find out..... Detachable Magazine bottom metal (had to add this, as It will make it easier to SELL to one of you guys !!!!!) Funky paint scheme with a funky Creakote mix...... If you are an "active" member of the Texas Bowhunter Forum, you can get in on this, but TODAY is the cutoff to order. Ironically, I may have to sell my $2200 worth of barely used archery gear to afford this mess. Stay tuned for more. Oh Yeah, I'm already planning next years build, 300 PRC.

You not finding the perfect load for that rifle, spending the time at the bench, and on the range is nothing short of pure laziness.
Shame on you.

Shame on you. Ever heard test select to find the right combination, I think Buzz test selects rifles to match a pet load
lf the saying "Liar, Liar your pants on fire" were true Mainstream news might be fun to watch
