SELLING Remington 700 Prefits are HERE

I received your 6bra barrel to try out and installed it in an Eliseo R5 stock. I bore scoped the barrel and it was beautiful, even better finish than your youtube one. Head spacing using just a 6br case was easy. I had to use a long 30mm 6 point socket that I cut the back off and welded on a handle to tighten the barrel nut because it was recessed too far to get an adjustable wrench on it and I didn't want to remove the action from the chassis. Using a fire forming load of 31gr 4064 and 70gr hpbt I was able to get half minute groups at 100 yds. Mind you this was not a worked up load, I just wanted to fire form some cases to set up my resizing die. Also my bench set up was not ideal either. I'm an otc high power rifle shooter and so to form more cases, I shot some offhand at 200yd for practice. Was able to pull off a decent 195-7x, all shots were on call, and the 9s were all me. I have to wait for warmer weather (I live in northern Minnesota) to try 105's at longer ranges to see if they will shoot. I'd like to see if it will perform at 600-1000yds. Maybe I got an exceptional one, but so far I'm impressed with this barrel, especially for the price and ease of installation.

That socket idea is an awesome idea...

I love the 6bra.

I keep trying to tell people, for the money... nothing is even close :)

THANKS FOR THE REPORT!!!
