They are really sweet, aren't they? My second trip to the range with mine I was trying a moderate load using the Sierra 155 "Palma" bullet, iron sights, 100 yards. I fired the first four and asked a friend to look through the spotting scope and tell me whether to fire the fifth shot. He told me I'd always wonder if I didn't. The group of .830" was a little flukey of course and not since duplicated but under 1.5" is routine. And I just like handling and cleaning the mechanism, it's so nicely made.
Jim, are the bores chromed?
