    I have 2200 rounds through one and 300 rounds through the other. Nothing wrong with .243Win. That said, there are like 5 new entries into this "Production" category by Tikka, SIG, Winchester, Savage and Remington. I can't drop all the specs off the top of my head, but I think 2 of those can be had in .243Win. There is also a .260 in one of them.

    I picked up a 6.5cm gen 2 the other day. Threw in a Timney trigger, bipod and pulled the brake off. Still deciding on glass.

    I love my rpr. For the price you can't beat the accuracy. Wife bought me a 308 on sale for under 1200 and I just swapped a proof research 6.5 into it. 3/8 moa on first round of load workup. You can swap a barrel in 30 min. The other manufacturer's production offerings shoot just as good and I'm happy to not spend $2000+ on a solid shooter like I did with my rem700

    I think that is one of the selling features of the RPR. I have 4 factory .243 barrels and I swapped them around and got less than a 1/2" change in POI at 100 yards between all of them. Going to rebarrel one of the .243s to one of the MGTS integrally suppressed .308 barrels.

    I finally got behind her today in the living room. The rail is definitely not in line with the can and receiver

    You have to loosen all the little torx screws. Start on the top two closest to the receiver and screw them in while straightening the forearm. If it goes off to one side then loosen that side a little and tighten the other. Then repeat with the farthest top screws. Do the bottom last. Mine came crooked as well
