Hello Tom_H,

I've fired several of my cases 5 times and all is well. The head area is a snug fit with no resizing at that juncture; I'm only neck sizing. As expected, I'm continuing to be mindful as I work up different loads.

Hello Marrakai,

I like your pop-up cheek-piece story. I'm going to stop typing and check my rifle right now to see what happens .... back in a minute...... YES! ! ! .... I set the triggers, (safety on) and popped up the cheek-piece. Both triggers were no longer set; the sears dropped. That means "both" barrels would have fired at once. I can see where that might have happened if you had not brought it to my attention. THANKS

I did some load workup today, and tested the scope removal/return. With my conservative loading, I was really low on velocity with the 250 grain bullets, and just about right with some 220 grain flat nose loads. The groups were nothing special, but they did remain in the same place when I removed the scope, and then put it back on the rifle. It gives me confidence that when I store the scope off the rifle, and put it back on, the rifle will be shooting where the scope is looking. I'll continue to test this at each outing to be absolutely sure it is repeatable.
