Thought I'd share my new build with you. I always treat myself to a new gun when I finish a deployment. Decided to go with a full custom 300/221 Blackout. The build took almost nine months but that was mainly due to the stock running behind. AKA-Spook built it for me.

Modified Rem 700 action with sako extractor and tactical bolt knob

16" Brux heavy barrel with 1 in 8" twist (threaded for surpressor)

Jewell trigger set at 8 oz

Manners stock with adjustable cheek piece

CDI bottom metal and magazine

I added a NF 20 MOA two piece base

NF Med rings

NF NXS 5.5-22x56mm

I just received it so haven't fired it yet. Got brass formed, primed and ready. Just need time and a place.

Once I get out to the range I'll post the results.

This is my first custom rifle and I'm super excited about it.

Re: First custom build

I always do the same thing too. Everytime I start a deployment I start the build process so it is there upon my return. I like the rifle alot and I am looking forward to the range report.
