Gettin one built at the end of summer and would love to see some out there. Possibly gather the last details for my build. Specs, stock colours, finishes! All details and pics are appreciated!
 
Matt, I love the 300wm...all hunting rigs tho...was in process of building one for competition till I learned from some veteran competition shooters that wasnt really a good idea for what I was am wanting to do...live and learn.

That being said here is a pic of my latest 300wm
Mcmillan edge stock, brown with red recoil pad
douglas match grade barrel, #4..1:10 tw with interrupted flutes, bead blasted..(needs cerakote instead)
bolt w interrupted flutes..bolt knob the same
timney trigger @ 2lbs
ptg bottom metal
talley rings
zeiss conquest 4x14x50 rapid z 800
weight @ 7.5lbs

It was kicking my booty doing load development so I got a clamp on brake only for that purpose as I dont like them when hunting.



 
I like the 300 as well , so much so that I finished up a second one this year . Shot one without a brake for years before I saw the error of my ways . As you can see the FTE is my brake of choice now . Here is a crappy iPhone pick of the pair .


 
Some beautiful rifles you boys have. Can't wait to get my build started, wish it would be here asap. Unfortunately I won't see it for 16 months at least
 
This one is about 17 years old now ...

Lotsa love for the FTE on these big 300s. Not a 300 WM but gots a 300 SAUM pushing the 178 AMax to over 3000 fps and recoil is like a 243

Gonna do a switch barrel with a 6.5 SAUM

Heres a bad pic, will get a better one later. Still not sure what color I should coat it.
