Certainly not benchrest performance but pretty darn good with off the shelf ammmo. Thats why I chose the McGowen barrel. Every one that I have owned has been accurate and the staff has gone out of their way to accomidate my requests.


Nothing wrong with that.

Thanks for posting the photo's, very classy. The bottom metal pics went straight to my collection. I'm using the round bottom on my current project and going real slow. I think Duane nailed it pretty good. I like this approach better than the scholarship rifle.
