I had a new 6x47L barrel installed on my rem 700 action and I shot a local match yesterday with it. The match is a new match that isn't sanctioned by the NRA. It is called the Field Precision Rifle match. String of fire follows the F-open and FT/R. Difference is rounds must be fed from a mag whether it be blind or detachable, barrels are limited to 26", scope magnification limited to 25x, any caliber up to .35, and must be fired off bipod. I shot the following scores with it: 194-5x 194-4x 195-7x for a total of 583-16x. The load I was using was 38.5 gr of H4350 with a 105 Lapua ignited by a CCI 450. I had a great time with this new barrel. I was very surprised at how well it bucked the wind. Didn't have the wind problems with the 6x47 like I have experienced with my 308.
