    Likely nobody will be interested, but I thought I'd type out an update about what happened to this rifle.
    After 2 or 3 Leith Valley range visits I couldn't make it shoot. So I asked Mr Passmore to give it a try, and he couldn't make it shoot either. Two different shooters, multiple different types of ammo, including some of Passmores hand loads. Passmore said it was a bedding issue, so I got that done. Only to find out the Leith range was shut for 2 months for winter maintenance.
    Their first day open was today, and I took it along. Put a box of 150gr hornady whitetail ammo through it. The money seems well spent on the bedding job. With my amateur front-rest-only ability it was grouping within an inch or so, and consistently in the same place on the paper. Very very pleased
