Here’s some builds I was finally able to make some progress on. Our shop was shut down for 2 weeks so I had some free time. All three need coating and break in. Hopefully they will open one of the ranges near me soon so I can shoot these.
First rifle is
weatherby vanguard
300 PRC Carbon six 26” barrel
APA little bastard brake.
I trued the action, bolt and trigger. Had to remake the fore end of the stock to work with the larger barrel.(new stock is 16 weeks out) had to extend the mag box and mag well to fit the larger coal.
Second rifle is a Rem 700 long action
26” Rock creek 5R chambered in .338Edge
Trued everything. Cut the mag well and ejection port. Pinned the recoil lug opened screw holes to 8x40tpi. Installed a wyatts extended box to fit the long coal. Threaded bolt handle for badger knob.
Third rifle is a Rem 700 short action
24” Bartlien 5R chambered in 260 AI
Tired the action, PTG Blot. Faceted the bolt shroud(no indexer). Made my own bolt knob. Pinned the lug. First time electro-etching the caliber.
