Keylay's Build

[keylay31]

Well, after several returns, a scope issue fixed, and a lot of grief, I have my final product. Big thanks to Bert at BPTactical for doing the gunsmithing and for walking me through some of the debugging I had to go through. His work was great and the price was right.

Remington 700 .308 ADL Varmint (26" bull barrel., 1:12" twist)
B&C Medalist Style 4 1000 stock
Timney trigger
barrel cut to 22", 11* crown
Harris LMS Bipod
Warne bases
Burris Signature Zee rings
Nikon Monarch 5-20x44SF scope
Tac Ops bolt knob (good for -0.5 MOA)
Devcon skim bedding
Conversion to BDL floorplate and magazine

Stock, it was shooting about 2" groups at 100 yards. Looks like I'm currently shooting about 0.5 MOA out of it. I shot at a 600 yard gong with my BDC reticle and hit it 3 out of 3 times. Life is good. :-) I'm sure with reloads and more importantly, some practice, I can get even better.



50 yard sight in - 3 rounds 150g Core-Lokt Ammo - 0.25" at 50 yards


100 yards - 5 rounds Fed GMM SMK 168g - double tapped one of the holes - 0.75" at 100 yards


100 yards - 5 rounds first reloads 165g Nossler + 43g RL-15 - 1 flyer that I knew was bad when I pulled the trigger - 0.50" at 100 yards

Your boom stick looks like she got lots of potential... She's a beaut... enjoy and shoot safe

Update:
Of course, Federal GMM with Sierra BTHPs shoot awesome. But...

I've been working on a load with Nosler 165 Accubonds and shot a 5/16" (.3125") group last weekend. Time to load up more!

This gives me hope for my 700 ADL project.

do you have any 'build in progress' types of pictures?

Nice. Bring it down to a PD match in Pueblo and give it a workout.
