Got My Coyote Gun Ready to Go(204 Ruger)
« on: September 29, 2007, 09:36:33 AM »
I finished the bedding work last week and today hit the range to check the rifle out. ALL groups under 1MOA and no shift in POI. I am at last a happy camper. I think fore-stock bedding should have been one of the first things I did instead of the last. Also the lug reaction point is now very close to centered. I am keeping the loads down near min values for the time being but plan to test out FredM's idea regarding Varget with a little more velocity.

Got my coyote gun ready to go.

Some of the groups are 0.5 MOA!!!!!!!!!!

Good for you glad you finaly got it worked out. If I remember right that thing was giving you a fit. Dale
