    Thanks guys I've enjoyed this project and I'm proud of these rifles. As I remember the final orders came through around the end of Feb or early March so I met my goals on turn around time. I think you'll all be happy with them. They handle and balance really well, look great, bolts run slick as...

    Christensen Arms???

    I have no personal experience with those rifles other than people bringing them to me for work to resolve accuracy issues. I've turned them all away. The barrel is what matters in this and I believe you would be much happier with one from Proof Research. I've built some rifles with them and...

    I got out to test some of the rifles last weekend and again today. I tried several of the .260's last weekend with 142 SMK's but they didn't shoot all that well so this time I tried 139 Scenars and the rifles definitely liked those bullets. These loads are all with 139 Scenars and 4831 SC...

    Thanks guys. Popping in for a quick update, which is, nothing much new to report ;) Next critical path item will be test firing days at the range. Most of them are .260's so we'll start with those and that will take several days. As always any of you guys can reach out to me if you have any...

    These are the stocks that just came in from Manners and they are going into bedding now. They still need the muzzle thread work and obviously the labeling and coating. Some guy on facebook commented that although the camo is nice the shiny aluminum barrels would give away his position lol. We...

    Checking in with you all for a quick update. I'm knee deep in the barrel work now and Tom Manners said the stocks will start arriving in the next week or two. I think he said the fixed versions will start showing up first. They will go into bedding as the stocks arrive, then I'll test fire each...

    Tim yes they are all spoken for. You'll have to talk to Frank about the possibility of a standby list. Just wanted to check in with you guys and let you all know what the latest status is. I have everything but the stocks and Manners is working on them now. I sent Tom a barreled action so he...

    Good news guys I just got in about 18 of the barrels from Bartlein and the rest should come out in the next couple of weeks. I just got keys to my new shop and I'm in the process of moving about 50 miles south of here. That will delay me in getting started by two to three weeks :( Marc

    Just a quick update to let you guys know the stocks and barrels were ordered two or three weeks ago and we are just waiting on parts. Onoko: It's hard to say exactly because I don't know how long the barrels and stocks will take. Bartlein barrels are the best so they're in demand and take...
