    My build is finally finished

    Like I said, there are a few small changes I would like to see. Haha. Mainly the 20moa rail and cerakote for cosmetic reasons. I would also like to try a different muzzle brake, but I received the LRI for free so I can't complain. Would really like to try a PVA mad scientist. However, I really...

    Thank you! It balances just slightly forward of the barrel nut.

    My build is finally finished

    Already set up to reload, just need the powder and bullets. I have the old school Lyman auto scale. Set it to charge a few grains shy and trickle the rest on a manual scale. Seems to go by fairly quick when reloading 100 at a time.

    6.5 Creedmoor - Build one in a day - Quickly and reasonably

    Yeah, I had a buddy that had a proof research barrel that was void of rifling in a few inches and it was a sub MOA barrel. Of course after finding out he replaced the barrel, but he won several matches with it.

    No, I saw this myself. I could be exaggerating the 4" but rifliing was missing in the middle of the barrel.

    6.5 Creedmoor - Build one in a day - Quickly and reasonably

    I went the criterion route myself. I went the long way around by buying a crappy sps then rebarreling it. One thing to keep in mind is that the receiver threading has to be the standard Remington threading. So you can't true the threads. However you can true the face of the receiver. Cost 35...

    Lubrication / Oil for DLC Action

    I use a little known lubricant called "cherry balmz" it is a cool that smells like cherry. It does a great joob of penetrating the metal and not coming off. Keeps everyhtjing nice and slick.

    Suggestions for 2 stage R700 trigger

    I have the DX2 on loan from a friend. It is actually a great trigger. Each stage is adjustable as well as the position of the trigger itself. Very clean break. Have it set around 3 pounds and it is perfect. Will end up buying it.
