Being in the outfitting business has given me the opportunity to see and use almost every custom and mass produced hunting rifle out there. Because of this I had come to the conclusion that anytime a rifle was built in a light weight profile, accuracy would be compromised. That was until I was introduced to your rifles...
...I will admit, I was skeptical and having heard a few nevative rumors about carbon wrapped barrels, I thought for sure your guns just looked cool and would probably shoot a 2-3" group. After much thought I purchased one of your custom rifles chambered in the 257 STW.
The first time I took the rifle to the range was in 70 degree weather, and I had the gun shooting 1/2 inch groups at 100 yards. The next time I found myself at the range was two weeks later and the temperature had dropped to 35 degrees. And I'll be darned, the gun still shot an impressive .601 at 100 yards.
My partner in the hunting business was so impressed with the light weight, durability, and accuracy of my rifle that he purchased one chambered in the 6.5-284, and the first group this gun ever shot at 100 yards in 45 degree weather was a 1/4 inch! Wow, we were blown away!
Anyhow, you've made a believer out of me. After all the rifles I've seen throughout my many years of outfitting, finally someone has come up with a great looking, extremely light weight hunting rifle that will easily shoot sub 1 inch groups at 100 yards in a variety of weather conditions.
