    Is this how you do a compressed load?

    A RTFM moment right there. Rest were fine when I set the seating die correctly.

    Having finished on the Puk's, I thought selling off the 17 hornet was a good idea. (thankfully went to a forum member)
    As often happens, after selling the right tool for the job, I got asked to a few other properties to clean up the "f'ers shitting in the water troughs".
    So the search began again for a CZ527. Fortunately the gun dealer just around the corner had one that someone was kicking the tyres on, so I grabbed that as quick as possible.
    The leftover bits from other builds got slapped together, and I now have a rifle that's ready to be sighted in. The rubber overmoulded stock was terrible as it came, but after pillars, bedding, and stock stiffening got done, it's pretty solid. The walnut stock is too nice to use, so I've put it aside.

    Probably won't make that mistake again!

    New one shoots ok with the factory ammo.
    This was from sighting in today at 100M. This is the first 12 shots through the rifle, so I expect those group sizes to come down.

    Looks so beautiful in that dusky light. Nearly brings a tear to my eye.
