I'm pretty satisfied with the 5R. Installed a new USO, and ran some decent ammo through it for the first time on Fri.

Looks like it's capable of a little under .5 MOA with FGMM 168 - with me driving. I'm certainly no expert at this.

Am right at 500 rounds total, and the action has smoothed out nicely. Have gotten accustomed to the palm swell, so I have no issues living with the factory style stock.

All that remains is to resist the urge for further mods, and go shoot the thing.

I got mine finished a few days ago and took it out for it's second time. Using the 208 amax I was getting 1.3 - 1.5 inch groups at 200 yards..300 WM. Hopeing to improve my technique and bed the rifle and get a little bit better groups.
