Hill Country Rifle
I ordered a new gun today, heres the write up.
This is our Harvester rifle based on a stainless steel Remington 700 action and 24" barrel. The rifle has been fully Accurized with aluminum pillar and glass bedded action, into a McMillan Remington Sporter stock, 50% Olive, 30% Gray, 20% Black marble, with 1" Pachmayr Decelerator recoil pad at standard length of pull. Rifle weight is only 7.5 pounds. The factory Mark-X Pro trigger is tuned to a crisp 3.0 pounds. Barrel break in is done and accuracy is outstanding. Three-shot group measures .550" at 100 yards with factory Federal Premium 180 TSX ammo!
It's gonna be harder to explain those misses from here on out.
