I have seen several of the F/TR guys with that erector set looking bi-pod (couple of them National record holders) – good point on getting a good one.

I've noticed several of your posts on this and other sites.  I certainly value your input!
I will check my receiver/barrel contact and make the 80 grit adjustment when required.  I do want to leave it in the composite stock for now to get used to it.  Hopefully won't take too long to get up to speed with it.

Bought it and took it out last weekend.
Holy smokes is it accurate.  Several one hole clovers at 100, opened up a little at 300.
Like 55 AMAX, 69 SMK, 75 AMAX, 80 SMK, & 80 AMAX.
Out shoots my Remi 700 223 BDL.

Great advise!
