Just wondering how the long range shooting went, and what sort of chrono results you've been getting.

I'm sort of interested in building up such a monster, and I'd love to hear the details.

I'd like to hear an update, as well. Still getting .5 MOA?

Well. I'm not Rob but have been shooting mine, although in a really crappy stock. No chronograph numbers to shair but is does seem to be realitively flat and very accurate. Recoil is very tolerable. I wouldn't push it too much. I've been up around 2300 and it is begining to let you know its there. This may make a nice 100 yd benchrest gun.

Hopefully Rob will chime in as he has much more trigger time on this one than I do. All in all it's a winner, as is the 550-600, 474-600, The 458-600 is a bit overbore but really fun to shoot light pistol bullets out of at over 3200 fps. Does a number on water jugs.

I have not done much since my Mcmillan actioned Unlimited 1000yrd gun was damaged by faulty CCI primers. I had the 510-.600 barrel on it and shot a 4.5 inch group. Like John's results 2300-2400 fps is about max with 800 gr bore riders. This cartridge has alot of potential as a 1000yrd benchrest caliber.-Rob

We've got a nice 1000 yard range in Pala (North County San Diego). Next time you guys are out this way, I'd love to see it shoot.
