This is good to see. I did purchase some CFE223 for when I can finally get to loading for mine.

I love mine and have just ordered a front sight from NECG. The stock front blade/bead was too tall and I shot low and couldn't adjust any more. Mine is in 35 Whelen and i have gotten sub moa groups with at least two kinds of factory ammo. (Hornady 200 gr and Nosler 225 accubonds) I did add a new trigger spring, recoil pad, Alaska arms qd rings and floorplate (after the picture) I know it's a deer and not African game but the experience of the 35 whelen has made me wish I would have owned one all my life.

And so I did, with the Barnes anyway, top charge of 70 grains on center target was a winner, good stuff!

I will be looking for a set of these when my .505 is done... sadly not cashed up right now for these. 
Need anything in trade?

what kind of velocity does the 140 grains list, curious how they would fit in with my current 130 gr, supply of 270s. maybe a pic of the box data listing vel. and drop. Oh and complements on that ammo belt, nice.
