My bullberry barrel and it was worth the wait. It will shoot 1/2 inch groups and smaller @ 100 yards with no problem. I wish I had a way to post a picture of it because it sure is pretty.

Well mine took about 5 months to get here, I order it on Feb. 11,03 and it got here August 6. It is a 7mm RM. So far every load that I shot in it has grouped 1/2 inch or better. I also had him lighten my trigger down to 2 pounds. And it is light, if your not careful it will scare the willies out of you if your not ready, but I love it. I got a medium varmit taper @ 24 inches long and it looks good. It was truely worth the wait. I am going back to the range tomorrow to sight it in. I am going to shoot the sierra's 140gr. spitzer bullets with some IMR 4350 @ 61.3 grs. Fred said to really watch for presure in the hot loads (which I don't do anyway) because of the way he cuts his chambers and the headspace it is all really precise. I love it and can't hardly wait to shoot my first deer with it.

Great folding stock carbine for deer hunting , and it will shoot.

I will say this Fred knows what the heck he is doing when it comes to building these barrels.
