    Yes have got a radial brake for it but was hoping to be able to shoot it without which I can comfortably do.

    Nice I like it. Have you shot it yet? Is it going to wear anything on the end of the barrel? I imagine it being quite lively at 3.3kg

    Yep, I'm in the stages of load development at the moment. Was hoping to be able to shoot it without the brake which i can do comfortably.
