Lets see and hear about your project rifles you are working on

[mese341]

With all the negativity in the world. I thought I would start a thread so everyone can show off the builds they are working on and show off what makes them happy.

I picked this kelbly atlas tactical 18" 6.5 creedmoor rifle off of a hide member I am going to switch stocks to a manners mcs t2a with mini chassis and add a break and a Harris bipod and going to use it as my deer rifle

 

[Dimefox]

Waiting on parts but trying to put together a light deer rifle. Anti action, Proof steel med sporter barrel, AG Alpine Hunter in 260 rem.

Still need to get my butt in gear and build a 6BRA, impact, bartlin, MPA, USO are the way I’m leaning now

 

[Simia Dei]

I have a tempest away at the moment getting a switchlug, it has 26" proof steel and carbon 7mm SAW barrels, and is getting a 22" 260 barrel added. Stock will most likely be a Cadex field QD at this stage.

 

[mese341]

That is a manners t2a with mini chassis and a barlein 1 in 9 twist going to be finished at 26" for ftr

444 marlin on a Mauser action. Waiting on tooling right now. Will definitely be interesting.

After working on some tooling last week I will be barreling my next favorite bear gun, a pre-interarms Zastava large ring mauser in 9.3 x 62, original barrel was a 8 mm, gun will be used for baited bear hunts so I am going with a 19.5 inch. In addition to the barrel I am installing a win 70 three-position swing safety. For this spring's hunt is Sask I will probably drop it into the original after I open up the barrel channel as I have not decided on the permanent stock, after it is cerakoted in black.

Hopefully, it will impress the bears.

Sounds like a very fun project

GA Precision is supposed to finish my M40a1 this month.

Thanks, I will post after cerakote. Although, the Mauser 98 design is long in the tooth I like them for hunting up to midrange after that there are platforms that do better for me.

Ar-10 in .308 switching to a 6.5 creedmoor. Got a Ballistic Advantage 20 in barrel and have it on the upper. It is ejecting perfectly but not picking up a round out of the mag. It is still cold up here so working slowly on the project

 

[just browsing]

NRL Hunter build
.25 Creedmoor
Tikka CTR action
XLR Carbon chassis
24” X-Cal 1:7 “lightweight” carbon barrel

(Not pictured)
USO FDN17x
Badger rings
TBAC 338 Ultra
Ckyepod

Barrel still needs to be chambered and the handguard needs some additional MLOK slots cut in to better mount an Arca rail, but she‘s getting there.

Weight is right under 16lbs with an empty mag as configured above.

That's going to be an awesome build I have always liked the smooth tikka actions

I haven't shot an ar10 but one day I would like to build one and it's still cold where I am at also

I am looking forward to seeing it I am looking forward to hunting this year because I can hunt out of my reloading room so I can sit in a tall bar stool and shoot off of a tripod

That's gonna hurt the shoulder but looks sweet

Nahh, it will come out at 10 pounds and be suppressed. Should be easy to shoot.

 

[Matt_3479]

Currently I have a new 22lr build underway, with another 22lr blank just arrived today to try a different twist in comparison. Sending off a 6mm blank to spin up a new 6bra for the impact, and some minor changes on the 300 Norma. Pretty pumped to get the new 6bra back up and running

 

[mese341]

I have been really interested in the 300 norma looks like a sweet round

Another project I am slowly gathering parts for is a 26" 1 in 6.5 twist 223 rem on a terminus Apollo action
