Here is something a little different for the forum. Normally I love blued steel and fine wood, but I also appreciate a a top end synthetic tack driver too.
I started this rifle several years ago thanks to the nudging and help of a forum member. The rifle was set up and shooting a few years ago but it took mea while to finally get the finishing touches done - which would be the new bolt handle, scope, and rings.
The rifle is amazingly accurate and a pleasure to shoot. On several occasions I have shot under 1/2 MOA out to 500 meters with match ammo.
Here are the specs:
Stock - McMillan A5 in desert tan camo - bedding done by McMillan
Action - Remington 700 - trued, lapped with Tubbs oversized recoil lug and Tubbs Speedlock installed
Barrel - Early Gale MCmillan 1:10 308 Winchester - 24"
Trigger - Jewell
Bottom metal - DD Ross Tactical
Mount - Badger 20 MOA
Rings - Leupold Mark 4 medium
Scope - Leupold Mark 4 10X
The bolt handle is a Holland that Mike McCabe welded on for me - it is a real improvement over the factory or the so called tactical knobs out there. mike did an amazing job welding it on.
