B&C Medalist made a difference with 30-06

[bullet]

The B&C Medalist stock I had put on my Mark V 30-06 and bedded and free-floated paid off. Also had Cera-Kote finish. First here is the rifle:

Here is a three shot group with Sierra 165gr HPBT 59grs H4350 at 2953fps

I stocked 3 of my custom rifles with the BC Medalist stock. Its a great stock for the money.

Yes, this turned out much better than I thought it would. Now I wish Deer season would get here but ours starts in November.

That there is a dandy load. Congrats on the group and glad it made a good difference.

Thank you remingtonman 25-06, it shot real good as a Mark V Synthetic but about every third round or so would throw a slight flier but still could keep a five shot group under and inch. I figured it was two things first me and second the Synthetic stock which was not free-floated. Well, it seems I have corrected my shooting mechanics and the B&C Medalist is doing it's job. I am glad I switched stocks and had it bedded and freefloated.

I lost all my pictures on Photo Bucket and it removed every picture I ever posted and therefore removed every picture I ever posted on a forum in my load development for the last three years and also post on rifle builds. I surely am not going back to repair all I have ever posted on forums but I will repair this latest post on this forum.

russ808 I won't leave it lying around for both reasons JD I believe you are right and it is time to go hunting. Antelope Sniper, The B&C Medalist has preformed very well on every rifle I have had it installed. I am really happy with this rifle. :lol:

Nice fence bullet.
Good choice in optics also.

bullet,

You could call your rifle the "sewing machine" because you can thread the needle. :lol:
You have a fine looking shooter!

cloverleaf, you are so right about the group being a nice one. I will post the largest group I have fired with this load as soon as I take the time to post the picture from my camera to the computer. I can get faster velocities with IMR4350 but not as consistently as accurate as with H4350. Also, I really do like how my rifle has turned out and consider myself very lucky to have a smith that knows how to set up a Mark V and B&C Medalist stock so it will shoot real good.

Here is the largest three shot group I have fired so far from my Mark V Custom 30-06. This is 165gr GK HPBT in front of 59grs H4350 moving 2953fps on average. The squares on the target are one inch squares to give you a reference point. Once again, this is my largest group with this load. There are some folks who say a 30-06 cannot shoot with the 308 in accuracy. I would beg to differer but of course I am biased toward the 06. I wonder why???????

:grin: :grin: :grin: :grin:

I sure hope Nosler produces a Custom rifle in 30-06, I could see myself buying another 06. :lol: :lol: 8)

 

[FOTIS]

I would be elated!

Yes, I think it would be a fine move by Nosler and it surely is a great rifle they build and it would be in the all time classic cartridge.
