Very nice, a couple different generations. How do you like the new one compared to the gen 3?

Not sure, but I'll find out for you.
It's a shame that the Gen4 was released before I got to use my Gen3, but that's the downside of having a big wait for the receiver and an even bigger wait to get the rifle over to my side of the planet.
Was tossing up whether to do the chassis in FDE or mate Highland Green, but I think I'm liking the black as it is

That brings another question from me... what color is the metal work on this rifle?Not sure, but I'll find out for you.

Its Burnt Bronze with a dash of black to tone it down a little.
A better representation of the color:

Dang Shortbus, you are probably going to be getting one of my x-ray's for paint when I get it in. I really like the brown flectarns on your site.
Hennig, my Longrifles Tikka is actually going to look a lot like yours when I bolt it up in my W3 that's on it's way!

Decided to give the 7-08 some love for the long range shoot this weekend. Barrel looks monstrous after taking the 17" off!
Just placed my order for a non folder but with every thing else added. Now for the wait........
I absolutely love this chassis. I torqued to 41 inch lbs for both screws and shot this group with my new barreled action bolted in. The ergo's and quality of the W3 is excellent.
My gorgeous SAC built 6.5CM on Tikka T3 Action with a KRG chassis. Got it together right before Shot Show. Put a few rounds downrange since. It's been fun so far but its not even close to being broken in. More shots to come as the weather gets nicer. It was snowing yesterday in Wisconsin. The guys at KRG are amazing to deal with and obviously the products speak for themselves. I need to get an Xray next.

This is not helping me wait.....what's your overall weight as she sits right now?
hahaha that's great to hear you like it, it was a long time coming but I think it's way more comfortable than the older one.
11B-B4 that sure is a nice looking rig. There's some extremely nice looking finished rifles/stocks in this thread.

First Whiskey 3 i've done in Multicam. Pretty slick IMO.
This one is mine. I should be getting it back from Jon at Area 419 firearms tomorrow. I'll post some complete pictures then.
Tikka T3 Varmint
20" barrel with factory thread.
.308 Winchester
KRG WT-3 generation 4. (one of very few in Sweden)
ASE UTRA SL5 Suppressor (OAF)
ATLAS bipod
EGW 20MOA picatinny rail
Nightforce steelrings
Vortex Viper PST 6-24x50 MRAD
Aluminium bolt shroud
Now I just need to stockpile some pretty dang good ammo.

I've got an APA gun on a defiance on my Gen 1 KRG chassis.... the recoil lug recess was not cut large enough to fit it but it was a super easy operation to mill open so no big deal. I'm not sure how the Gen 3's and 4's are slotted. Good question for KRG.

Would you please weight the rifle and post weight?
If I get a hold of a half decent scale, I will weigh it and post the figures.
All I can say right now is that it is lighter than my Remington 700/AICS AX combo, but not as light as I was hoping for.
With that said, I am still extremely pleased with this rifle.
I asked this over on the KRG X-Ray thread, but since the backbones are the same, and there are many more current owners over here (as opposed to aspiring owners like me in the X-Ray thread) I thought I would ask a question.
I'm really loving the CG Jackson triggers I've installed in some of my rifles, and I intend to use them in more rifles in the future. Does anyone know if there is enough room to drop in a CG Jackson trigger into a KRG Chassis? With or without the safety (since it seems to widen the trigger body somewhat getting the optional safety)?
Thank you!

They sent us a 3D model of the trigger body and it fits but it did not have a safety on it. Worst case you may have to remove a bit of material from the stock but it looks doable.
As an aside relating to Whiskey-3 weight, those looking to go lighter and have a Rem 700SA or T3 can swap out the forend for the X-ray forend and save 13oz, putting the fixed W3 close to 3.5lbs from 4.4.
Thanks,
Justin

Justin,
I now have a Gen 4 Whiskey 3!! I think I have had every generation with the exception of Gen 1.
Is the X-Ray forend available for purchase yet? I think I will be contacting you to pick up one of the X-Ray's.

Here is the latest Whiskey 3 of mine. I love this rifle!!! It is a Benchmark worked over Rem 700, in 6.5 creedmoor, 22" barrel, weight without suppressor, was right at 13#!!
It is now cerakoted in Sniper Grey (shitty Iphone pic is kind of grainy)

What barrel contour is this?
I think Justin mentioned that the Remington fore end is the same as the Badger, or at least that is my hope as I have one sitting in a box that I need to install soon...

Hey fellas, the Remington SA forend is what comes on the Badger chassis so yes they are the same.
