This afternoon went to le Ruisseau Noir again to shoot my brand new custom from Juan Valdez, my 6.5 Creedmoor... On hand two weight of factory ammo some 129 gr SST rated 2950 fps and some 120 gr GMX rated 3060 fps... 60 rounds of each will be enough to get the idea and will give me some cases to necksize only for my handloads...
Took it easy on the first 10 rounds, like wait 2 minutes between shot, as steady as she goes... Groups at the start were around MOA quite normal with an unsalted barrel. a quick patch down the barrel and we pickt up were we left... Groups started to shrink around 50 shots, after that it was back and forth .6-.7-.5 and so on... Recoil is just to small to mentionned, small enough that i can see my bullet hitting the paper, this is a great feature, the rifle is a perfectly built rifle, all details are flawless, the trigger is sweet as sugar, breaking a tad over 2.5 pounds, the Sightron 10X50X60 was up to mesure like usual, this will be a great combo for far away shot, cant wait to try it at 1K at my land... Very ...Very satisfied with my first custom, something tell me it wont be my last one.... Many thanks to Sean for a great rifle... JP. PS: The group in the video end up being a .6 MOA @ 100 yards using 120 gr GMX....
