    This is our first complete in house benchrest build(finishing up a Vudoo currently) I am pretty happy with the way it turned out. 2500X, Bix'n Andy Competition trigger, Mullerworks 16 twist .900 at 25" long, Holeshot tuner sitting in a Owens stock.

    Good looking rig, I'm building myself a Vudoo single shot with a 25" 13 and 16 twist MullerWorks to compare in my new Foundation Benchrest stock..
     
    Very interesting that you use the same chamber for the Vudoo repeaters. The reasons for my calling you are mounting.
    Thanks David
    Thanks,
    When I started this journey/rabbit hole into the PRS rimfire world, being competitive by nature I wanted a very accurate and precise rifle to give me an edge so I looked at the bench rest world and what they were doing, long story short we tried various reamers, barrel brands, length etc and selected the ones that gave us the most accurate and repeatable results. The process works great for Single shots and repeaters.

    Here is my first BR Build based off CZ 457 action, 26x1.00in lilja, Woox chassis, Jared trigger and Harrels turner. I just got the New Anthlon 15-16X56 and will take out tomorrow morning. This pic has the Zeiss LR3 6x36 on it. Would like have gotten the 26x.900 but the 1inch was in stock when I called so I had it in 3 days.

    Foundation is getting into the benchrest game?
    I asked John to build me one a few years ago, this is the protype. I"ll post pics of a Dark Distressed and Black one on a couple of rifles we are finishing tomorrow. The versions I have at the shop have an anschutz rail in them like the standard stocks do. You can use an m5 bottom metal to make a repeater or a flat bottom m5 we are making to use as a single shot.
