Here you go. Rem 700 LTR in an AICS, Nightforce 3.5X50 NXS . Since updated with an Atlas bipod and spigot.

[gcrookston]

Is that H&K a PSG-1 or similar?

H.

It's an HK93 with all factory accessories available, with the exception of the Hensoldt 4x which I replaced with ARMS Stanag rings and a Burris 3x9 FF.

All accessories except the burris scope and arms STANAG rings are HK German factory originals, including the Psg1 trigger pac and a .22 subcal unit. It's a real tack driver.

One of the problems with trying to squeeze accuracy out of the HK91/G3 is the sheet metal receiver twists as the roller cams are released and the bolt carrier slides back. But with an HK93/33, this is not a problem as the forces from the 5.56 are not sufficient to cause deformation and you can wring out sub-moa accuracy with 52gr bthp (it's a 1:12 twist).

Alas, when I was laid off in June this year a friend of mine helped me out with some of my wife's medical bills and he has it for sale in his shop with all accessories -- and it has at least 1 of every accessory ever made for the HK93/33 platform - all the stocks, tools, trigger pacs, mags, etc... About $8,000 worth....

Both Accuracy International rifles.

Closest rifle is an AIAW chambered in 6CM. The scope is a S&B 5-25 and the suppressor is a Shark. The barrel is a Krieger chambered by Dave Bruno. I normally use Lilja barrels, but Dave had this one in stock and he is set up to do metric threads.

The other is an AWM in 338 Lapua. The scope is a S&B 5-25 and the suppressor is a SureFire. With 250 gn bullets the recoil is not bad. But when you get the 300s up to speed, it can knock you around a bit.

http://i890.photobucket.com/albums/ac105/puebloshooter/DSC02546.jpg

[rtr]

Rem 700 Action chambered in .243 Winchester, Benchmark Barrel that was recently put on a diet and threaded for incoming can. Scope is S&B 5-25, cheekpiece is by Karsten, bottom metal by CDI McMillan a4 stock. It's Hosers fault I got into these silly bolt guns to begin with and had to buy an S&B recently.

My first precision rifle, Remington 700 SPS Tactical 20" sitting in a McMillan A4 stock with Badger Ordnance detachable bottom metal. Pillar bedded, crowned, lapped and assembled by BP Tactical (Awesome job!). EGW 15 MOA base and a Leupold Vari-XIII 6.5X20X50mm scope sitting in Seekins Precision rings with a basic Harris bipod beneath.

[Rinodods]

This is a savage .243 package rifle I built into a .260 Rem. Picture shows it all stripped down after a duracoat seesion. Currently it has a Vortex 6-24x PST mounted on it and a Horus ASLI.

[Fentonite]

Wow! That's hot. How much you into it for so far if you don't mind me asking and what range are you looking to shoot at?

I spent more than I'm worth, as a shooter, but I'm hoping to grow into it. I hope to shoot to around 800 yards...


Thats a really good lookin rig! But....is it missing something under that cover? Looks a little loose and unfilled?

nope, not an empty sock. I was just sloppy putting it on. A Gemtech Quicksand is hiding underneath.

Who is the stock maker? I haven't seen that one before.

Good looking rifle BTW!

Thanks! It's a Manners T5-A. Fits me better than the McMilan.

[palepainter]

I picked up an Ishapore 308 for a couple hundred at Tanner a few months back. It had already been bastardized, so I tore it down. I took it to Bert at BP Tactical do his magic to the barrel. He put a nice crown and threaded it for the YHM 308 Flash Hider. I went with a scout scope config with this one. I blasted and durocoated the metal and added the paint to a sporterized poly stock Here it sits next to a stock 303. I did a line bore sight in with it so far. Need to get it out to the range soon.

[islandermyk]

Porn to say these least boys. Some great looking sticks you've got there. I'm relatively new to shooting experience wise and own a few rifles and handguns. I've shot in the military and a little since returning stateside. Building my first AK and waiting on parts. I'm interested in a long gun but fear the price of entry. Still would like to get some exposure to longer range shooting and eventually be in a position to shoot well at 500+ yards. Would it be possible to meet up with anyone at a range and watch/learn a little? I can read stuff on the interwebs all day but nothing beats mentorship from someone in the know face to face.

Should start another thread on this one... but I'd be glad to show you what I know (which is very little), and let you put a few rounds through my rifle... Just try to make one of these Pawnee shoots we go to [Beer]

but to keep it going... here's my new project REM 597 22lr[Flower]

[J]

[spleify]

Yep nice stick, I cant wait to stretch the legs out on that thing!

[coop68]

This gives me gun envy as I am trying to finish mine. Nice set up J, I'm still trying to save up for optics[Bang] and some day buy a new stock.

[encorehunter]

It's not as pretty as some on here, but I am hoping it will shoot good.Rem 700, B&C A2 stock, 700 tactical 20" barrel, Leupold VX-7 3.5x14 scope.Trigger was worked over and is right at 2lbs. http://i631.photobucket.com/albums/uu37/jlstodghill/P06-17-13_17-53_zps1d41ca76.jpg (http://s631.photobucket.com/user/jlstodghill/media/P06-17-13_17-53_zps1d41ca76.jpg.html)http://i631.photobucket.com/albums/uu37/jlstodghill/P06-18-13_07-01_zps2331b825.jpg (http://s631.photobucket.com/user/jlstodghill/media/P06-18-13_07-01_zps2331b825.jpg.html)

Thats a great set up Matt, looks nice, miss my T2 sometimes!

[encorehunter]

I got out to the range yesterday. Shooting from a real bench was a pleasant treat. Wind was around 10mph, so it wasn't much of a factor. After last week I put a cleaning rod in a drill with a swab brush wrapped in 0000 steel wool. With a little oil, I polished it for a few minutes, then did a complete clean and oil.
These were all shot at 100yds. On the 5 shot group, the second shot went off before I was ready.

[quickdraw]

steel wool, on a drill, in your bore, for a few minutes....... that's 'interesting'.....

[islandermyk]

I'm really biting my tongue on this one [Coffee]

[encorehunter]

Not bore, chamber. The burr was at the back of chamber. I have not had any negative effects as of yet. I should have said for under a minute, not minutes. After waiting 9 months for the barrel to be changed and head spaced, I did not feel like taking it back.

[islandermyk]

Ahh.. I see... just be careful you don't tear up your rifle lands.
I haven't had any problems with bolt (yet), but on occasion I do use scotch brite on my Krink. Those nylon or those hard plastic brushes should work well too.

Nice groups by the way [Beer]

[quickdraw]

Not bore, chamber.
OK, that makes more sense... The thought of your running steel wool in the bore with a drill made me cringe. :)

[encorehunter]

I used a swab that was tight in the chamber and put the steel wool about 3/4 inch back from the tip so the wool shouldn't have been close to the throat.

[TheBelly]

I guess I'll play.....

I just assembled this tonight. It's a hunting rig for my Father-In-Law for when he moves back to the US in a couple years. He said he wants to shoot factory ammo at white tail deer about 200yds away, with an emphasis on being light weight with low recoil. This is chambered in .243. It cleanly took white tails when I was a kid, so unless he shoots a bionic deer, this should be fine.

I'm really glad to have built this for him. His health has declined in the last couple years, so this gun has a little bit of meaning to it, and it will have a lot more meaning when I'm able to hand this to him.

http://i994.photobucket.com/albums/af70/thebelly925/54275DAD-1C52-4A80-B029-B3A1D158ABAE-1321-000000D6C44907ED_zpse2aa609b.jpg

[islandermyk]

Bad ass Brother! Bad ass [Beer]

[Tim K]

Cool, Belly. Are you going to make the man sight down that little rail, or will he get a scope?

[TheBelly]

He gets the rail. I get the scope.

im probably going to put the mk4 Leupy on it that I can't get sold. (It's in the for sale section.....shameless plug)

[offgrid]

Just had the front rifle chambered, 7SAUM. Same components as the back rifle, 6x47, have 900rds on it. Spent some time fussing with the triggers to get them very similar. Both rifles have the same feel, the one will have a tad bigger bark. Chamber was cut/throated for the Berger 180 Hybrids in a short action, jumping them about .020. at mag OAL. Hope to get a load/dope figured out in time to shoot the Magnum match in Raton next month. Gunsmith Jon Beanland chambered both rifles, can't say enough good things about him as well as AJ Goddard (Bighorn Arms).

Bighorn short action
Brux heavy palma barrel 27" (Bartlein on the 6x47)

[islandermyk]

Daayyummm.... reminds of those naughty "Double mint gum" ad's [Beer]

[offgrid]

Built this rifle for the owner of the company I work for, he's been very good to my brother and I for many years. Going to give it to him next month.

Chambered in 243, throated for Berger 105 Hybrids
Trued R700 action
PT&G Bolt
Timney trigger
24" Kreiger Medium Palma 8 twist
XLR stock

Scope/rings picture isn't coming with it. He has a Vortex PST 6-24.

He mostly shoots AR's, the XLR chassis should be a easy stock for him to get behind.

I'll be loading ammo for him. Started working up load on Saturday. 47 grains of H1000 is looking good. Will shoot it at distance this weekend. Maybe I'll shoot a match with it before giving it to him.

Nice Randy, how far out have you taken it?

[Buckaroobonsai]

I've chased pdogs out to about 800 yards, but have yet to get a confirmed kill at that distance. I've come within inches of hitting one, but considering they're about the size of a beer bottle and moving, I don't feel too bad. However, I have no doubt that I could consistently engage a standard military silhouette target at that distance with it.

Pawnee would be fun... I'm pretty sure we could set up steel targets as far as you want or to your hearts content [Beer]
Another thing to is... don't worry about blowing through so much ammo. I usually bring 100 rounds or LESS for long range shooting. I also bring my .22 bolt gun for shit's and giggles.

[XC700116]

Turns out they work pretty good [Beer] Ran 10 different loads 5 rds each and not a single group above 1/2" Smallest was .150"

Best group with a single digit SD was the one with .150" and an SD of 6.5 Running 2721 FPS on 45.5 grs of H4831sc

H4350 was producing better speed (high 2890's) but not as great of an SD just as good of groups though. More testing is required on both because I can deffinately go a touch hotter as there's still no pressure signs.

Bout time! J/K. I know its been a while coming for you, I'm sure you are excited. When are you going to go stretch the legs out on that bad boy with us? Also, pretty awesome you went with the Razor, last time we talked you were thinking PST. I'm sure you will be glad you waited a bit longer for that glass. The Razor is no joke! What rings are those?

Thanks, it has been a long time coming going back and forth and finally a deal came up i couldn't pass up. i bought the vortex 35 mm steel rings it was part of the deal so it worked out. If i'm not mistake seekins makes them or badger.

when ever you are all going let me know and ill come and join now that i have a toy to play with. I'm working on my reloads currently just waiting for some better weather to go out and test.

[J]

Vortex makes some of their rings in house, and their higher end rings are made by Seekins. Cool deal. Shoot me your cell in a PM so I can let you know the next time we are heading out. You can try some of my 178 AMAXs too if you like.

[J]

Waited almost 3 months for the stock, and now it is finally done (after a stripped allen bolt on the stock, and a huge headache there). I had to build one like Lief's that I can shoot a 1/2 MOA 10-shot group. Now I have a small caliber, accurate bolt thumper of my own!


Specs:

Savage Axis .223 Barreled action
Rifle Basix Trigger @ 1.7 lbs (as light as I could get it without bolt slam discharge)
Blackhawk 9-13 Bipod with swivel/cant.

Vortex medium tactical rings
Boyds Featherweight thumbhole stock

GREAT glass for the price, I absolutely love mine, the only drawback is the weight of that big mamma jamma. The new Gen II's that are supposed to be released soon look great too, but they are also pretty heavy. Not much of a concern though unless you're packing it around a lot.

[J]

My "Even longer range" gun is done, for now. Eventually it will go in an AX chassis, and have a SPUHR mount just like my 308, but for now it will be WAY more than good enough.

Mind if I ask what the color percentages on the stocks are? I'm getting ready to order an A5 real soon and looking for a good idea of the mix that I want. Your 6CM stock is VERY close to what I'm looking for.

BTW VERY nice boom sticks.

You can touch'em Mike, as long as you use that magic touch you have! XC700, let me pull my invoice and I'll let you know what I choose on colors and percentage.

[TheBelly]

.260 Remington build is complete:








It started with a R700 that wouldn't give up the barrel. No problem, just give a tiny bit of the heat, and off it comes!

It's a little dirty, so lets just clean it right out.


http://i994.photobucket.com/albums/af70/thebelly925/3F8A833C-939A-4DD5-AD2C-9AE2FF82F3F6_zpsmtavmwn5.jpg




The lower lug had good contact, but the upper lug had (guess-timating) less than 20% engagement area. Hand lapping will help with that. The receiver was less than .0005" off from concentric, so no need to thrown it in a lathe.

A little bit of friction in the bolt was causing a binding in the cocking action. A couple turns with a strop, and all is well.

Time for the barrel install.

Bigger recoil lug on the right, because why not.

Here's my long distant precision! Sako TRG42. Been waiting for the TBAC can to get out of jail for it!

[offgrid]

Recently sold off my AICS stock and picked up a XLR. Wanted something lighter. Getting to old to hump a 17lb+ rifle around! Rifle as pictured weighs 13.7, 24" medium palma barrel. Balances well. Happy with the XLR stock, fit/finish is very good. The inlet for the action is CNC'd for a true 1-1 fit, not a "V" block. Shot the last Raton match with it, did OK, stunk it up on stage 7, new stock didn't help me out there!

Just hit the 8000rd mark on the Bighorn action. Action is silly smooth.

[J]

Some of you have probably noticed me selling a decent amount of precision gear.... well here is what it was for:

DTA SRS A1, OD Green, 22" 308. Will be adding 6.5CM (with Bartlein blank from SAC), 300WM, 338LM and MAYBE 243 kits to the setup.

Specs:
DTA SRS A1, OD Green Chassis
22" Lothar Walther 308win Barrel 1:11 twist
Schmidt Bender PMII 5-25x56 Optic
DTA rear Monopod
Atlas ADM QD Bipod
SPUHR 34mm 44.4MOA Scope Mount
SAS 3/4-24 TOMB Muzzle Brake
SAS Arbiter 300WM Suppressor
Trigger Time "Surgeon Style" Bolt Knob
2x 6rnd DTA Magazines.
Trigger tuned to 1lb.

Pics below are the 22" DTA vs my recently sold 20" R700 in an AX. (The owner of my old R700 came over to have me help mount their new SWFA SS scope. )
Perspective doesn't really show it, but the 22" DTA with an extra 2" on the barrel and a 9" suppressor is actually about 1" shorter total length than the 20" R700 in the AX chassis no suppressor.

[ray1970]

Too many numbers and initials for me to figure this out.

So, you sold the rifle you had out last time I was there and bought that green, bullpup looking one?

[J]

More or less.... Yes.

[ray1970]

Sweet. I hope it shoots as good as it looks. [Awesom]

[J]

It will. It is an amazing weapon system.

[Delfuego]

Very sexy buddy! I am jealous (except for 308) you should get a 6 or 6.5mm barrel for it too! Easy peezy to switch calibers... Congrats [Beer]

[J]

Yeah next will be a Bartlein 6.5CM cut by SAC.

[bellavite1]

Nice!

[DangerLee_Industries]

Sweet!!!! I like DTA's stuff and chatted with them at SHOT. Tried to become a dealer but no bueno without Brick and Mortar. Did you get the parts online or local?

[Hound]

Very nice, congrats.

[Hound]

I just saw this... I was out with you a few months back at CRC. It looks even better in person. Damn nice rig!


Just got this one decked out in a new chassis and bipod. Bighorn Arms action, Mark Chanlynn barrel, Mcrees Precision chassis and Burris Black Diamond 6-24 scope. (Click on the photo for a larger version)

shooting off my back porch.
Deviant left handed action 308, Bartlein barrel 22", timney trigger 2.5#, Mcree's Precision folding chassis, TBAC 30p-1 suppressor.
I sent the parts to GAP and they built this for me. It was about a 7 week turnaround.

[smchop]

I finally cracked and drank the kool aid

[J]

Nice. Have you gotten to shoot it yet? Did you find someone with a Gen 2 on the shelf or pick it up used?

What caliber you got in it? Plans for any others?

[Tim K]

https://www.ar-15.co/j/dta2.jpg

What's the trigger feel like? Is there some long linkage? My one experience with a bullpup wasn't very good, but I'm assuming they have it sorted out.

[J]

Feels great. Right at 1lb. Zero creep, zero pre travel, crisp break.

Has some over travel that really doesn't bother me, but I might have a Smith install an over travel stop on it this winter.

[smchop]

Nice. Have you gotten to shoot it yet? Did you find someone with a Gen 2 on the shelf or pick it up used?

What caliber you got in it? Plans for any others?

Was shooting my .338 saturday and picked this up sunday so haven't had it out yet. I talked with a few distributors and DTA direct, no Gen II available, and didn't know when they would be. Found a used one with less than 100rds down the .308 conversion. Gonna look for other conversions, 6mm Creedmoor, and probably a .338 also. Got an extra set of new OD green skins, but they don't have the monopod cut, but I think I'm gonna ditch the monopod and skins, never liked using a monopod always a rear bag.

[J]

But they made it sound like the Gen 2 would still be made available factory new in the future? I thought they had moved exclusively to the A1.

The releases went, in order:
Gen 1
Gen 2
A1

In all honesty, I had a chance to save some cash and buy the Gen 2 covert brand new. I went for the A1 instead, and with the setup I have the improvements in the A1 don't really do anything for me. Should have just done the G2. As long as you don't mind the quad rail (which I don't) and you get the proper height mount so you don't need to adjust the cheek, the G2 is every bit as good as the A1.

Well, DTA wasn't so sure about getting me one, a distributor was but he would give me no time line. What you said above is exactly why I wanted a Gen II over the A1. None of the upgrades were things I was interested in. I'll head up to Mile High in a day or two and check on that mount. She said we could mount it up and check to see a) that it fit b) I liked it. They are great up there.

[HBARleatherneck]

I have other long range precision rifles. BUT, these are the only truly custom rifles I have.
Both are built by GAP
Deviant actions, Bartlein Barrels, Timney triggers, Mcrees Precision chassis, Atlas bipods, Nightforce NXS, ThunderBeast Cans. Suppressor cover, scope cover and cheek pad are all my design.
One rifle is 338 Lapua magnum and one is .308 The .338 is wearing the wrong rings until the medium rings come in. the high rings came with the scope.

Mcrees chassis
weight as shown in pictures with suppressor and empty mag.
308 16 pounds 4 oz
338lm 19 pounds 4 oz

they are heavy, but not too heavy. i humped a M2 50 cal, MK 19, and 81 mm mortar tube all over hell and back. and this is sure lighter than that.


the 308 weight 11pounds 4 oz with out all the stuff on it. Which is over 2 pounds lighter than the AI AX308 and the AT308

What caliber?

308....,I almost changed calibers. 308 seems to be making me a better ( not good. ) shooter right now. All of this is subject to change.

I tried to tell him to go with a 6.5, but he wouldn't listen :)

The rings have to be tall so the scope clears the hand guard?

Nice looking rifle. Shoot it yet?

[Delfuego]

Nice looking rifle. Shoot it yet?Yep, rings are 1.5" or so. Cant really feel any difference because the cheek and stock are adjustable.

Nothing at all wrong with an XTRII, good solid scopes. I like the picture, is that up in Pawnee?

Private property, but yes. I like shooting up there & I especially enjoy shooting out past 1000 yds. Only other place I've done that is the 1180 @ CMSC.
