    Thanks for comments lads!!
    Barrel is finished at 26 inches but with the moderator on it makes it look that little bit longer - but for how i plan to hunt with it , it need not matter
    The load that i am using is.....
    Nosler custom 280 Ack brass
    Federal 210 match primers
    Reloader 22 powder @ 60 grains
    162 A-max kissing the lands..
    All the best ...
