    Sub moa. Minimal velocity spread with the Hornady Precision Hunter 212gr -the drop is very consistent right out to 1150m which is as far as I've gone with it. If only I could judge the wind as well haha

    A couple of recent additions...

    Type 38 Carbine and Winchester M1917.

    Who can tell what's wrong with the picture of the M1917?

    - the stock looks like a partially-pissed-away urinal cake.

    Ruger Hawkeye M77 stainless, left hand, in .375 Ruger. Rebarreled with Shilen 1:12, 22 inch ( maybe 23 inch ), fluted, stainless barrel, restocked with Pendleton stock with Decelerator recoil pad from Oregun Gunsmithing. Original trigger tweaked for clean 3 lb break, entire barrel and action bead blasted matte.
    Started the build last year and only received it this week. Hope it shoots as well as its looks suggest !

    Thankyou for your comment. That's a "barrel band" sling stud. There was one in the same position on the factory Ruger barrel. Not 100% sure buf it looks like the gunsmith detached it from there and put it on this Shilen barrel, just as I asked. Forestock sling studs can dig into the hand under recoil with the bigger calibres and it's quite common to see them positioned forward on the barrel

    Makes the rifle a heck of a lot easier to carry too. I have taken the sling studs out of all my rifles and looped the slings on the barrel instead.
    I like the squared fore-stock, should sit and hold well in hand. Shilens are great barrels
