Custom Savage 22-250ai Pics up

[TEAMSENDIT]

Here is my custom savage done by Benchmark Barrels inc. in Arlington WA. It was a savage model 10 mcmillan in 308 and now is a 27.5" snakeskin no taper 1 in 8 twist 22-250ai custom throated for the 75gr amax. The barrel was made and installed by benchmark for just under $500. The paint is my first attempt at krylon camo, I wanted something basic that would blend alittle in the desert.

Mounted on top is an IOR fixed 16x mildot in seekins rings on an egw 20moa rail.

So how does it shoot?
What's the pouch for?
Why is it tied to your bipod?

shoots 1/2moa with fireforming and at least 1moa out to a 1100yds I didn't have paper target but I had a 12" by 12" steel target up that I could hit almost everytime ( I am beginner so I don't judge the wind all that well).

The pouch is connected to the bipod it is for the pod claws so they don't scratch the barrel or catch on anything.

OK. Gotcha on the pouch thing.
Did you make it or buy it (the claw pouch)?

sharp shooter supply they are 9rd 308 mags but they will take 10rds of 22-250ai for some reason.

I bought the pod claw pouch from the same company that makes the claws. those pod claws are great I recommend anyone shooting prone should use them they give you way less shake when you fire and seem much steadier than a standard harris.

I love the pod claws and will probably be buying some different feet for mine soon (for the bench) claws seem to do a number on the wood.
