Got my new upper from Dan Carey on Friday.

It's a 22" shilen barrel in 6mm woa. That's a 6.8spc case necked down to 6mm. It can shoot up to 90gr bullets at mag length and 107's single feed.

Scopes a lil late getting here so I stole the glass off my 204.
First wildcat for me so I was a bit scared to do it. My first load is a 80gr Berger hp with 27.gr of h4895.
Mild load just to break it in. I guess it's a finicky gun as it didn't shoot to well. This was was the fist group at 100 yards

So I figured I'd back up and try at 300 and the next group did this.

Ok so it shoots! Now I'm wondering what it's really capable of.

Conditions were not the best with shifting wind and shooting off a card table.
 
Nice job Aeon. Are you going to chronograph your loads once you find a dandy?
 
Yeah for sure....for now I was just breaking in the gun. Hate to burn the burgers for that but I could not wait to try it. The goal is to develop a couple loads and the dope to shoot it :)
 
now i just need duck season to get over with so i can spend more time chasing the dogs :)
