I took my time and did a half assed barrel break-in. I shot a couple shots at 25 yards then moved to 100 yards for zeroing and then I cleaned after 5 rounds. I used the foaming bore cleaner and got no signs of any copper. I then repeated this 3 times before I settled and got serious about shooting some groups. *The test target supplied by ATR was shot with Federal GMM 168 and measured 3 shots at .400" at 100 yards.*

Here is the VERY FIRST group I shot.

This is a load that i had worked up from another 308 i used to own. (shows potential)

I am going to do a more comprehensive range report in the future. I will add it to this thread. The first range report I do will be with all factory loaded match/target grade ammo.

Here are some more pics for your viewing pleasure.

Gotta love these kinds of threads! It's really really satisfying to sink money into a new "toy" then hit the range and discover how well it can shoot
 
Nice rifle!!

I'm thinking about building the same.

Did you bed the rifle in the AICS?

How long did you have to wait for the built?

Thanks!
 
Lots of money to just shoot 1/2"?

Will it hold the 1/2" @ 500? or 800?

Why did they engrave their name every where? Nice Rifle...until you see that. I would ask them for a new barrel without their name on it.

Looks like we will have to stay posted and find out!
Also, I think there are multiple pictures with the name on the barrel once....
Why the name on the barrel... why the badge on a car?
