6X47 build-smiths to recommend?

[CT10ring]

I have a Surgeon RSR action, Krieger 1/8 HV bbl etc. and am wanting to have a 6x47 Lapua built. Need threading, chamber, crown- I will bed & cerakote. I have never loaded for this round (I like the 6.5X47) and think this would be a great long range PD gun with 105 amaxes or similar. Any recommendations on a smith with (no turn) 6X47 reamer with experience in this cartridge are appreciated.

cloudpeakgunworks.com Check Trevor out. He has built several that shoot really well. I am waiting on a Pierce action to have my 6x47L stuffed together. Can't Wait!!

Try Nathan Dagley of Sraight Shot Gunsmithing. He builds them and shoots them. I have had several rifles built by him and I have really enjoyed working with him.

James Peightal of Ernest, PA.

His work is often mentioned in " Precision Shooting" magazine.

Accurate rifles, good prices; great turn-time.

John Beanland shoots the 6x47L exclusively. He is a tactical shooter and is very very competitive with his 6x47lapua. He know s all there is to know about that chambering.................................... Jon is in Oklahoma, and his work is second to none.. Lee

I had my 6x47 built by John. He gets a lot of good press over on the Sniper Channel. If I can ever scrape enough cash together, he'll build more guns for me. FWIW, from the time he received the parts I sent, till the time I had the finished rifle in my hands was just over a week.

This is the bottom metal he Cerakoted for me to match my action and barrel. I bought it off gunbroker for $25 - it was scratched and very worn. Some one even stamped #'s into it, which is all that you can still see....

Crown:

The rifle is throated for the 105 bergers, but I'm having better luck with the 115s. Barrel is a Palma-contoured Bartlien (bought it and the action here out of the classifieds), 1-7.5tw, 28" finished. Trigger cam with the Pierce action (Jewell). I've since located lower rings.....
Stock is a Mcmillan - John pillar bedded it. He also bedded the scope rail to the action.

In North Carolina I would talk to Lenard Baity. One of the best as far as I, and a hole lot of other LR shooters are conserned.
Look on the home page under gunsmiths, BELEAVE ME you will not regreat it.

Bob Green was the fellow I went with. Spent a fair amount of time talking w me to be sure I
a. knew what I was doing re case sizing
b. educating
c. improving my build w/ diplomatic suggestions
d. called me 3 times to discuss
e. 2 weeks door to door return for chamber, thread bbl, thread bbl for can, crown, thread protector.

A totally superlative experience. A+
