First I want to say thank you to Keith at Pheonix Custom Rifles and all the Hide members that helped make me decide the way I wanted to set up this rifle. Keith was really helpful answering my 1,000s of questions. Also the the turn around for the build time was only 3 weeks! I could not be happier with how this rifle came out.

So I served as a 0321 with 1st Recon Bn and never made it to Scout Sniper School. However I still loved getting to put the occasional rounds through the M40A3. So it seemed like the natural place for me to start my first bolt action rifle. Even though it seems like the A4 isn't as popular these days.

700 action trued

Mcmillan A4 USMC spec bedded

Badger 20 MOA base

Bartlien 23" 1:11.25 twist M40 contour

Timney 510 set at 2.5lbs

Rancilio she shoots amazing!!!! Far better than my abilities right now. This is mostly due to the fact that I that I can only get out to the range once every 2 months or so. However I am very excited to grow into this rifle. I would bet that once I can afford to reload it will be a consistent .25 MOA gun. Big thanks to PCR for all the time and effort that they put into this rifle!!!! It shows!
