6x47 lapua XP-100

I have been designing a stock for 1000 yard Bench Rest competition I finished the stock a couple days ago and I worked on the XP-100 yesterday and got the barrel chambered and fitted to the action and brake installed then made the pillars out of stainless steel. I installed the pillars and bedded the action yesterday. I finished up this morning removed the barrel action from the fresh bedding and installed the base and scope. If I can get out in the field to shoot (lots of mud) I will be shoot this afternoon and take some video.

Parts list
XP-100 action
Nawakwa accuracy stock
Lawton 6mm 8Twist barrel cut to 17.950 long 1.250 HV taper
chamber 6x47 lapua
40 MOA Base
24x Leupold rifle scope
2oz Jewell trigger
12 1/2 pounds

This afternoon
The snow is melting and lots of mud where I usually shoot so I went to a farm where I hunt coyotes and set up by the road shooting out to 500 yards is all I can get at this farm. I set up at 100 yards to get a 0 and brake in the barrel I shot one and cleaned for 5 rounds then shot a 2 shot group out of a fowled barrel the group measured .364" at 100 yards

I cleaned the barrel and moved the target to 300 yards and put a rock next to the target for a sighter and a fowler shot. I shot the fowler shot. You can here the bullet hitting the rock in the video :D



Here is the video of 3 shot group at 300 yards group measured .716".

I decided to move the target to 500 yards but only had 2 rounds left the 2 shots went into 1.408

Hey Eric, welcome aboard.

Nice job on the X-P. As usual, no half-ass stuff for you.

Too bad Pella gave up on the 1K pistol matches, but then I don't know if my X-P could keep up with you now. :-\

We miss your smiling face down there. ;D
