Re: Groups from finished MRC
I must admit I'm somewhat envious. I have a 7x57 Mauser, Mark X action re-worked, being shipped within the next day or two in the sme stock configuration and to say that I'm waiting with bated breath would be an understatement.

I'd be interested to know how well you think that configuration "points" as in a shotgun pointing and how well it absorbs recoil.

it wasn't just the MRC that made it so nice...

it was the CALIBER

3 5 8 rocks

now, if it was a 376, the group OAL may have been the same......

It is their Leopard (Mountain Rifle) style stock. My two friends who were shooting with me both wanted to buy the rifle from me, and when I turned them down, said that they were going to order barreled actions from MRC - in different calibers, of course. They shot well with the rifle, too, by the way.

A shot of Hoppe's # 9 followed by an application of WipeOut and the bore looks like a mirror. Not much blue comes out.

You know there are a lot of people on this board who don't believe you can get groups like that w/o a barrel from Hart, Krieger or Lilja. That group doesn't surprise me. I have four barrels from MRC, and they all shoot very well. I got flamed earlier for stating you can get very small groups from barrels(other than those aforementioned), i.e., MRC, Shaw, A&B , McGowen, etc.

Congratulations on a nice shooting/looking rig.

A .358 Win barreled action from MRC, stocked and bedded by Serengeti Stockworks - only a few groups so far, but all have been under an inch and most around 1/2 inch. Here is the best group - .608 outside diameter minus .358 bullet diameter = .250 I think I've shot 25 rounds through it.

What does MRC stand for and what is their E-address?
