Thanks! From everything I've read a 6.5mm should get the job done very nicely.
Today I backed off the trigger to its minimum, added a Harris 6-9″ swivel notched bipod and a vortex level, and tightened the action screws to 52 in/lb with my new wheeler torque screwdriver. Re-zeroed my scope and then out of curiosity pulled out a box of 130gr Hornady match ammo. Was shooting at 85 yards, can completely cover three shot groups with a dime. Top left is mine, bottom right is my buddy, center we were zeroing with federal 140gr hunting ammo. Also stuck a couple of ear plugs to the board and hit them on the first shot.
Loving this rifle, going to start scouting for deer this weekend when I'm partridge hunting.
