Just picked it up from the smith today, I must also note that Sandy Garrett for Norther Virgina Gun Works does an immaculate job and if in the Washington DC area I would not hesitate to bring anything there, he is very knowledgeable and will leave you knowing you put the gun in the proper hands.

Now for the rifle

Remington 700 in .308
action blue printed
pillar bed in a McMillan A-4 stock
fitted, chambered, thread and crowned Krieger barrel (26 inch with a 1 in 11 twist)
Opened up the barrel channel for a #10 MTU
bead blasted and blued the barrel action
tubb O/S lug
installed a legacy international 20 MOA base
IOR rings
and IOR 16x43 scope
Factory old Remington trigger set to 4lbs (I like a heavier trigger pull)

I know this may seem like a standard built rifle to most but I am really excited about it. I cant wait for the weekend when I take it out to start the break in process. Let me know what you guys think.

Bonus points for the first one who knows what building I had the scope pointed at.
