250 Ackley Improved
We built this rifle on a Remington 40X action. A Lilja 26" stainless, fluted barrel was installed, and a Leupold 6.5-20 X scope was installed in Kelbly and Jewel rings. A Jewel 2 ounce trigger replaced the factory trigger.
RWS 5341 primers were used in Winchester 250 Savage brass in all the following loads. All groups were 3 shots at 100 yards.
