The LOP is adjustable from 13-15", I usually use around 14".... The drop from cheekpiece to shoulder pad is also adjustable, in six 1/4" increments, over a range of 1-1/4".... I can also twist the shoulder pad to any angle.... Bob
BobVery well thought and engineered project that has got to be begging to be tested and the fact that you now have to wait for the bullet molds to arrive just to start testing would be more than I could handle but then I am sure you still have plenty of little tweaks needing completed to keep you busy till the molds arrive. You say sometime in mid January we should see some testing numbers and just what all your hard work has produced. I am on the edge of my seat waiting to see how it shoots and if you obtain your goals envisioned for it.Mike
The tooling for the bullet moulds has been ordered from NOE.... therefore moulds for the 101 gr. and 112 gr. Bob's Boattails I need for this project should be available early in the New Year.... I'll keep you posted as to when they can be ordered, in case anyone else is interested.... Mike at TJ's reduced the land diameter of the barrel to 0.248" (the groove diameter is still 0.257") to make sure that the 7" twist rifling gets a good "bite" on the bullet.... so I reduced the mid-body of the bullets to 0.246" to make sure it doesn't touch the lands and cause additional drag....

BobIn principle that means that .25 pellet noses should work as bore riding in those barrels. Dagn, I wish we could get those liners here in Europe as well.
