The weighted barrel definitely does its job for sure. Its was grouping 15-20mm at 25 yards with AA diablo's and I reckon that will tighten up a bit as it settles and everything beds in. If I get chance tomorrow i'm going to bung some H and N FTT's through it for comparison.
Glad you're loving it, Mike.

The FTTs do seem to go very nicely in these (my 95 and 98s love them) and she'll get smoother as everything runs in. It would be even betterer still with a basic fettle / polish / relube etc., but no pressing need, methinks.
