7X30 Waters
« on: April 03, 2008, 05:07:44 PM »
I have finally finished(for the time being) my  rebored/rechambered 223 that is now a 7x30Waters.New to me stock,thanks ZX11,Truglow 4x scope.
I am going to put a Limbsaver recoil pad on it , it has a Graco recoil reducer in it and kicks less than a 30-30.I am getting north of 2800 fps with a Nosler 120gr BT, using RL15.  ;D ;D  Doug

NICE!!! Who did the re-bore and if you don't mind me asking what did it cost? If you would rather not say I understand.

Now thats a worth while re-bore/re-chamber job.  I am sure you will be happy with the proven 7-30 Waters.
