Thumbs up

Shot a ladder test last night and found at least one good accuracy node. I hate to shoot those too close, like 300 yards. My 2.4 grain 12 shot spread shot about 2" of vertical. Luckily I was able to decipher one accuracy node, so I now have a couple loads worked up for groups. Move that out to 5-600 yards and you'll see 5-6" vertical spread and real easy to read your accuracy nodes.

From what I saw so far, I'm pretty sure it's going to be a shooter. Heck it shot under 3/4 MOA with a 2.4 grain spread at 300! I look for 1/4 MOA out to 1K and at least in the .1's, 5 shot at 100. I'm certain this barrel will do that from what I saw.

I think a have another good barrel here...but do not know yet if it's going be a great barrel. Still very optimistic..
