Well tell us about its performance ? Loads,barrel lenght ?

I once had a 22-250 AI I pushed some 4,000+ velocities out of it. But it didn't make it any easier to hit stuff. Still have to have your trajectory calculations in order. The hassle of fire forming brass. I can shoot a squirrel with my 20" bbl 223 at a 100 yds and he still blows up. But hey...

Swift AI was once called the 220 Weatherby Rocket. Roy Weatherby discontinued it cause it didn't perform up to his standards. But maybe now with advent of new powders it should re-examined ?

Where are you getting your price figures ? I was qouated over the phone a price in the $650 range for bbl and all needed work ?

I started this thread . My Mod 70 shoots great because of Brux bbl and experinced gun smith who trued up the action . He did say it wasn't to bad to start with. BUT when I bought the rifle it was an off the shelf Mod 70 classic in 270 WSM. It was average for 3 or 4 shots and then it would throw...

Grmeicher order oneiand have it delivered to the store. They looked of,free floated forearm nice synthetic stock ,adjustable trigger 1 MOA guarantee. 5 r rifling 1-12Twist which is big plus if you want to shoot a 60gr V-max. I think as soos as some one buys my Ruger Sp101 Hammerless 357...

Grmeicher I'm as interested as you. They have a nice look to them. What caliber do you plan to get ?

Some one on this forum once said a Win Mod 70 is good for MOA at best because of its design. Mine stock from the factory in 270 WSM on its very best day could produce an occasional MOA for 3 shots until the bbl slightly warmed up. But since I had it re-barreled with a 26" Brux in 7mmWSM ...

Well just got back from shooting the above loads out of my rifle with standard SAMMI throat. Performance exceeded my expectations 70grs of Re#25 behind the Berger 168gr VLD produced an average MV of 3125 with under 1/2 MOA at 125 yds. BRUX barrels are awesome !!!!!

Acquired some Berger 168gr VLDs My brand new BRUX bbl chamber was cut with a standard SAMMI 7mm WSM reamer. With bullets seated just touching the lands C.O.A.L is 3.000 Magazine box is 3.011. Is there any advantage to having the throat lengthened ? This rifle is for long range shooting with...

Yes I did it produced fair accuracy.

Well I floated it. Also learned on a Mod 70 there is a proper sequence in the tightening of the tang screws to make sure there are no high spots in the bedding. Well now my rifle is a shooter. I was able to shoot two groups under 1/2 MOA groups with Sierra 160 gr GK in front of 70grs of Re#25...

I had my rifle glass bedded(just slightly pass the recoil lug)by a gun smith I learned about from this forum. It was done when it had its original factory bbl.

I'm convinced it must be done,and it will. Thanks y'all .

Thought Laminate stock resisted well weather changes I want a 1/2 MOA rifle do I have to free float the forearm to achieve this ? Its not a bull bbl ,measures .670 at muzzle .

Just received my re-barreled rifle from gun smith.I had a 26" Brux #4 contour installed on a Mod 70 Classic laminate stock. Gun smith didn't free float the barrel channel. Is it essential that be done even on a laminate stock ?

Having a barrel chambered to 7mmWSM with what gun smith says is his reamer is standard SAMMI specs........ Will I be able to shoot Berger VLD bullets 168 and 180 ? Barrel is a 9"twist 26" Brux BBL.

That was helpful,thanks

Hornady just came out with a 53gr V-Max with a BC claim of 290. How can that be true? It weights less then their 55gr V-Max. Yes it has a boat tail design ,but so does Nosler's 55gr BT. Its BC is lower then Hornady ?????
