Holy cow, what a task it was to get this thing to feed. I spent over 2 hours sanding the feed ramps. I started with 400 grit, but it would not take off enough material, so I went down to 100. After half a dozen times installing the barrel and hand-tightening the nut to test to see if it fed. Once it was feeding smooth, I took it out and finished it with 400 then 1000 until it was smooth.
I ran a few dozens rounds of cheap ammo through it, then this was my first group with the Black Hills 77tmk. About all I could do before I lost light.

Weighs 5.5lbs fully loaded. After this season, I'll swap the scope and buffer tube out, which will shed about a lb and a half. Thing is a joy to carry and easy to shoot.
One note - that Farrow Tech stock isn't too tough...
