He’s just a little Guy! Let’s see the little 223 trainers!

Curious to see everyone's rigs.
It's a win70 heavy varmint barrel in an SPR stock. I do also have an SPR though.
Picked this up used. 20” 223AI and it’s everything I wanted and leaves nothing on the table for my needs.
I've a factory 700 SPS Tactical barreled action myself. I had originally bought it to start a .223AI project around 2007.
However, with just a touch of load development the damn thing proved 1/2 MOA consistent. I went ahead and skim bedded it in the most LOP adjustable stock available at the time, and it now gets pulled out when I want to get the wife or M-I-L out shooting.
Older photos, sorry they suck.

.223 is prob my favorite bolt gun caliber next to 6.5x47
That was one of the best videos displaying trace that I have seen in years. That was really well done, no goofy dialogue just straight to the good stuff.
We need more of videos like this. Excellent job my friend.
Thanks man, plenty more of them in my YouTube channel featuring all sorts of long range weapons

Yes. I acquired it from the original owner/builder a while back.Wasn’t there a whole thread on this abomination a few years back?
My 223 Ackley. 26" Hawk Hill, XLR Industries Evolution, blueprinted R700 with a M16 extractor, Timney Calvin Elite. Topped with a Burris RT25.
This rifle has close to 6000 rounds on it. Its spent the entirety of its life as my Trainer running bulk 75gr BTHP Hornady. It rarely needs cleaned, hardly ever loses zero, and shoots .5 moa or better. All the time.
Its quite literally one of my favorite rifles.

Badass!!I have a black centurion also….stunning stocks!
Haha! You caught me!
I found that picture here in Russia on Google..
Luckily... I have da proofs..
I like to load it up with 80gr ELDs and play at the local matches with it. This last target is 1173 yards. I go 4 for 4 on it. You'll hear the guy with the cheap ass optic complaining because he can't even see the hits
Just finished my 22LR today with the Bergara cf barreled action in a McMillan A5 topped with the Steiner M5XI sighted it in out my back door haha!

There’s no rattle can on that gun. It’s all cerakote and hand distress. Gun was built by a group at a very premier shop. It was just not a “shop” build, it was a personal build gun. Every attention to detail is the same as if a customer had ordered it I assure you.Tacky as fuck, trashy, and classy all in one.
Dat rattle cam tho
DT SRS A1 - 223 24" Lothar 1:8 twist throated long for 80gr Amaxs .
