Reporting back with a new gun!

[marku]

First off I would like to say high to everyone. Its been a while since I posted on here.

Well I pulled the trigger on a Remington Sendero in .300 Ultra Mag. I finally found some Remington brass which if you reload for it you find out very quickly thats its impossible to find. I bought some 210 Berger VLD's which will work perfectly with the 1-11 twist barrel it has.

Im also going to try the final finish system on it as well to get a smoother bore for less fouling. I did some research on it and have found very little negative about it so Im going to give it a try.

So heres my list of "TO DO" for it. Of course im a APA whore so Jered will be doing the work.

.900 LB Brake
Lapp lugs
Bed the action
Recut the crown (Its got a nasty looking crown on it)
Jewell Trigger

Also im planing on sending it to Kampfield custom for a helical ti fluted bolt (with black filled flutes) and the campfire bolt knob.

Scope is a EFR 6.5-20, warne rings and weaver grand slam bases. Not one of my custom but nice rifle though.

Very nice!! Skip the firelap for starters and just shoot it. If its anything like the SPS's that remmy is puting out, it should shoot very well. I can't believe they put a 1/11 twist on that, but then again, it is remington.

I couldnt believe it was a 1-11 either. I thought that it would be a 1-10. Then I looked on the barrel and its stamped 1-11? So I checked it via a cleaning rod and it was 1-11.1" twist. So its right on.
