Eric one of the best actions I ever had was a P14, had a Schultz Larson .308 barrel fitted, machined my self a new bolt head, loaded some ammo with 180 gn lapua, was in a comp at 300 yds and spotting disc never moved, when Id fnished my 10 I was packing my kit away and gonna get on the phone to the butts, when a mate who'd been in the butts, came over and said here clever ******, we knew it must have been you, the spotting disc had 10 hits, I still have that disc an its just over 2" across
