New MVP Varmint Combo in 7.62 NATO

Okay the pictures need to be rotated 90° left, but you can see the rounds walking up from the cardboard to the center of the target.
I cleaned the barrel after every shot for the first 10 shots, on solvent patch followed by a dry patch, then shoot. Then after #15 and
#20. The first target is at 50 yards and the last 3 are at 100 yards. Good results for a new barrel and not working up the load.

I am happy. Light crisp trigger pull, almost too light for my preference.

This past Saturday, my and my son, finished breaking in the barrel. Now I have 100 fire formed
cases to reload and work up a tuned load for the rifle. The breakin loads were holding a 1.5 MOA
pattern at 100 yards. Very happy so far.

Break-in loads were:
FL sized LC brass, trimmed to 2.005"
Sierra 168 gr. Matchking
38.7 grains of Varget
S&B Large rifle primer
OAL of 2.800"
Light crimp in a Lee Factory crimp die.
