Whats the specs on that green/stainless rifle at the bottom, looks really light weight.

That's a seekins havak in .308, weight is around 9 pounds total. That's my new hunting "tactical " rifle and I love it!
Andy, no more excuses now. We have an international PRS style shoot in Sept 19 in our Midlands range Ireland. Would be nice to see you there... I'll try get details..One with a twist

not sure. just installed it today. I backed it off probably 6-8 clicks from how it was set in the box. absolutely zero creep. definitely the best trigger I've felt. It's extremely light. I'm guessing under a lb for sure.
That's the one regret I have with my B-14 HMR. I was going to replace the trigger on my B-14 HMR with a TT Diamond just as I did with one of my Premier Bergaras that came with a Trigger Tech trigger, then (since I'm a rifle nerd) I actually read the manual and it explained that the possible adjustment range for the B-14 HMR is between 2.8 and 4.4 pounds plus the little blurb about voiding the warranty. I thought well maybe that's just for the Bergara trigger, then on the Timney web site I noticed a warning on their Remington 700 triggers not to use them in Bergaras it said: 'The Bergara rifles use a heavier firing pin spring that limits pull weight adjustability.' So I stuck with the original trigger in the B-14 HMR because the Diamond ranges from 4 oz. to 16 oz. short of the B-14s minimum adjustment. The original trigger is by no means a bad trigger, not a Trigger Tech, or even a TT Diamond but a good reliable trigger. The Trigger Tech Diamonds come adjusted mid-range so if you backed it off you should definitely be below 1 pound, I'd still get a trigger scale just to know for sure but that's just curious me. Nice rig!
Yea I read all of that same stuff. I've been looking to sell my bergara HMR so I can upgrade to a TL3/Hawk hill setup in 6.5cm. So I went ahead and got the diamond despite the potential for issues. However I did cycle the bolt/ safety and dry fire it 50 times or so trying to get a malfunction and couldn't get one. worked flawlessly. So I suppose it'll just be extreme caution to not load a round in the chamber unless pointed in a safe direction. Safety rule I follow anyhow but just a note to self.
Looks very similar to my rifle! Upscale version though! Very nice!
im looking for reccomendations on paint jobs that will show off the carbon fiber, but give it some color besides all black.

Shouldn't be an issue for the HMR Pro since they come with a standard TriggerTech trigger these days, the issue is with the B-14s with the basic Bergara action but even that one with its original trigger is fairly crisp and has only minimal overtravel. Haven't had an issue on my Premier Bergara that came with the original TriggerTech frictionless trigger that i replaced with the Diamond and I wouldn't trade that rifle in for all the rice in China.

Following this post because I ordered my Manners stock the same way and now I'm wanting a little bit of color. I'm actually considering sending it back to Manners for their midnight camo job.
I did these last week, (we don't do visual carbon) a little bit of red blobbed in-between looked very good. (better than in this pic)

I like the McMillan Coyote Ambush pattern, but then again it blends in nicely anywhere here in the Western U.S. .

How do you find that badger when compared to the AI? Have oh had any experience with a tempest as well to compare it to?
Thanks! That J Allen has me drooling. Almost picked up the B-14 and went a similar route with it, but the Pro hit the value sweet spot for me.

Interesting... I have a similar build in process, but using a T4A Elite. Thought it would end up a bit closer to the 12-13lb range. I appreciate ya gettin the scale out!
You’re welcome, I couldn’t believe my eyes the first time I set it on there! I had to weigh it 3 more times just to convince myself that it wasn’t a 12-13 lb rifle.
