The weather was gorgeous this past weekend in northern Alberta so I headed to the range to do a bit of shooting. The first pic is of a Rem. 721 .270 that I had Corlanes do some work to. I recently got it back and wanted to try some 130 grain bullets in it. Had a box of .277 130 gr. Speer Hot-Cors on the shelf, so off I went. Below is a 12 shot - 200 meter group with powder charges from 57-60 grs. of H4831. Group size is 2.3 inches...downright ghastly 
.
Next up, although not a real lightweight rifle, I was playing with an M70 Extreme Weather .30-06 with 168 gr. TSXs. 6 shot group at 200 meters measured right on 3 inches. This is a good representation of what this rifle will currently do with TSXs...sometimes groups are considerably smaller but this is about average. This rifle is pretty well bone stock. I will likely bed it pretty soon but the re-occuring though of getting a new stock for it has kept me from doing that so far.
Enjoy the pics.
