Got my barrel in and gas block on last night and just need to put the handguard and VG6 6.5 on tonight and load up 50 or so 70 gr Varmageddons with 24.5 gr of XBR for a function check and break in. Hopefully that will occur tomorrow afternoon weather permitting.
It sure looks slick looking down a shiny new 24" 3P BHW barrel. Thinking more and more that I'll get past my 2900 fps expectations with either XBR or Benchmark

Shoots lights out in my 18" BHW HB and is my go to coyote load.
+ for swaging the primer pockets. Depth is uniform plus you get more strength in the pocket area then if you ream it, IMHO. I have not lost any cases because of loose priming pockets. I also anneal. Agree on the easy to clean poly barrel. Virtually 0 copper fouling. It's a great caliber.
