Just got my Solus setup after getting it from the recent sale.
SOLUS Competition Rifle - 20" .308 Winchester, M24
Razor HD 5-20x50 with Vortex PMR Rings
Audere Shadow Bipod
AP Arca Spigot Extension
Hoptic Quiver
Triggertech Trigger
 
The newly revamped Solus… Previously was a factory Aero 20” M24 .308 Win barreled action, now it’s a 20” M24 @CarbonSix CF 1:8 twist 7mm SAW…

Still waiting on dies and brass and stuff for the 7 SAW, so won’t be able to shoot it for a few weeks, but hopefully it will all show up soon. 👍🏼

How long from order to delivery?
I'm sitting on a cert that I emailed Gene about in May but then forgot to call in the specs
That’s a long drawn out story but short version, I originally ordered a 7” twist 20” .25 Creed barrel, but McGowan never made a batch of 7” twist .257 blanks…So I changed the order a few weeks back to something they did actually have on hand… Took 10 months from order date, but only a few weeks rush once we changed the order to something they actually had in house already.

You mean the sale from 2 weekends ago? They still haven't even shipped mine, or my Solus pistol from 2 months ago... 🤦🏼
 
My 7-300 PRC at the moment (also has a .300WM barrel to swap back and forth with). Still getting stuff together to start playing with it this winter. Right now it is serving as a test bed for my loaner Zeiss S3.

Finnish & Norwegian team work.
Tikka T3 SS Varmint on a KKC Hunter CTR laminated stock.
That is quite nice stock, if i would not be a chassis type of guy, this would be the stock i would get.

I'm always one shopping cart checkout away from a manners mcs-prs or foundation centurion but the chassis life is just so darn flexible

So originally my 6ARC build was mostly "funded" by cannibalizing my rimfire setup's chassis, glass and other accessories. But since 6ARC has been such a surprising performer for me (~2850fps with a moderate load out of a 20" barrel averaging .5-.7moa groups) ... I have some parts on order to put together a dedicated build which should come out pretty sweet, but more on that later.

To that end, and since I wanted to go shoot some rimfire stuff, the W3 Vudoo V22 lives yet again (y)

Note: the latest gen Vision foreend with the tunable magwell lets you tune for the Vudoo polymer mags very nicely. I was able to take all the velcro off of mine and its feeding like a champ regardless of pressure on the mag in any direction.
 
Finished the Zermatt Origin 6ARC build with a dedicated Manners PRS-TCS stock. Sporting a Kahles 328i DLR in a Spuhr 6002, Trijicon RMR, 20" 1:7.5 6ARC Benchmark barrel, TriggerTech Diamond trigger, MDT sendit level, Atlas CAL bipod and MDT 12 round 6ARC magazine. I might swap out the Spuhr for something that sits the glass a little lower, but I'm a big tall dude and everything feels pretty comfortable as it sits so will see how it feels when running the rifle first.
