[PAshooter20BR]

Here is the details -

Thanks to Ryan Pierce who supplied the action, trigger, bottom metal, and misc parts for the build. He had them in stock and is a stand up guy full of knowledge. Deal with confidence.

This rifle machine work was done by Lee Gardner of LGP. Lee is a great to deal with and I highly recommend. His work is top rate and he was tolerant of my rifle building OCD haha. Thank you Lee!

The rifle specs - built with a new 300 win mag RM reamer that I learned about From the long range guys at LRH. Throated for 215 Berger hybrid. Kelbly Atlas action, Wyatt’s MBE-3 Box, Hawkins BDL bottom metal, bix N andy tacsport trigger, Brux Remington Varmint Contour finished at 28 and fluted by Brux, little beast 3 port muzzle brake and Mcmillan Remington hunter stock with sniper fill. Gun has ultralite NF rings and a NXS 5.5-22x50 MOAR-T reticle. Totoal weight is 11.75 lbs.

I am running H1000 powder. My OAL is roughly 3.740. I am using a reamer set up for the 215 hybrid. I am unsure of the speed but it’s over 3000 for sure with the 28 inch barrel. fed GM215M and Norma brass.

I’m at 3.620” with a berger 210 hunting vld. Running 2857 fps av in a 24” tube. Absolute hammer on whitetails. DRT kills the norm.

 

[PAshooter20BR]

Update: 350 yards on the gong, 2972 fps, left shot is cold bore clean bore shot followed by the second closer two. Overall group was 1.2 inches with second two 3/4 apart. Time to hunt! Round count = 10

Very nice indeed

 

[PAshooter20BR]

Shots 11,12 and 13 at 600 yards. Strelock called for 9.1 MOA, I dialed 9 and sent 3. Group ended up being low 2.5 inches and right 8 inches. Will adjust drop chart for 9.25 MOA and call it good. Two were about an inch apart with one being further out. Overall group was 3 inches. Off bipod and rear bag prone. less than prime conditions this am, Heavy mirage with frost burning off and I really had trouble getting parallax dialed out and getting a clear site picture.

You might want to experiment with different primers to try and tune some of the vertical out of that group. Nice shooting.

that's what i keep telling him, tighten it up and actually hit that damn penny at 600yds!

I think the nut running trigger could use the tuning. I will re-shoot multiple times before I make any drastic adjustments. Unfortunately I struggle with some eye issues and precision aiming can be difficult somedays.

IMO, that’s some pretty good shooting right there......
