Well I'll give you guy's the good new's first.I still have all my TEETH [Big Grin] Recoil with factory 180gr. Corelocks were not bad at all.Yes,it kicked more than the 15" '06 but,not by much.It was more of a push the '06 has more of a twist and sharp crack.With the factory ammo it did show to be a shooter 1 3/4" to 2" groups @100 yards.It may shot better than that as I shoot it more.The factory ammo burned very clean or it all went out the end of the barrel. [Razz] Now for the bad new's I had a dead 9v batt. so I did not get to run it over the chrono [Mad] Barrel got hot after two shots I had to let it cool for about 2 to 3mins. cleaned it and shot again.I guess I'll try it again Saturday.I'll post as soon as I can.I do have one thing to add This is one fun barrel I could shoot it all day and not have to pick up any TEETH.
