110 sav accutrigger
benchmark 1:12 twist 22br barrel w/ snakeskin finish
LR BR stockade stock
boosted leupold varix-iii 18-40x40

i just need to get to the range and see how it does. I've got 1 box of 55gr bergers to try.

It looks very nice!
22BR is a great caliber, enjoy.

Simply Awesome! Who did the paint and can he do more elaborate work such as flames, etc, for others? I have a rear grip McMillan on my XP100 in .22 BR that needs some LOVE.

Wow! That's a fine looking piece of work. You're going to love the 22BR round. Scary accurate! I have 3 rifles in that caliber and all shoot bug hole groups. Easy on brass, also. Enjoy. Ron

Good looking rig! The 22BR isn't quite like it's big brother the 6BR. Pressure builds "real fast" when you least expect it so watch your loads. Start low and work up. Other than that, a perfect bug hole maker.

How did you paint the stock? Rattle can or w/ a gun? I have the same stock on my 260AI that needs painted.

We need a range report!

I will second the range report! I am going to build a very similar rifle, 1-12tw Shilen on Savage SA, and would love to see what loads work for you.

The paint looks very nice as well, almost looks like Viper blue. And with quality like that it has spray gun written all over it. If it's a rattle can it's the best rattle job ever.

Absolutely beautiful rig! I just ordered the same stock and color yesterday from Kevin at Stockade, and he is going to thumbhole mine and add black/silver flames.

And yes where is the range report?

 

[trentalan34]

Great looking rig, and as stated above, we need a range report. I am looking to build something similar for bench shooting varmints. Maybe a dumb question, but why not something like the 22-250AI?

 

[m-saunoras]

i love the stock. I would like to get a heavy benchrest for mine too

is that a varmint contour barrel?
