Bucket List Gun

Fellow shooters,
I started shooting one year ago. In Jan @ 73 I decided I wanted

a Bucket List gun. I called Ray Bowman in N.C. of PR&T and after a lot of decisions

with input from friends here is what I came up with. The group at PR&T are a pleasure

to deal with. I feel they are beyond gunsmiths, they are artists. A purchase order was

issued on Jan. 15 and I had the rifle in hand April 1 and the scope and mounts April 4.

This was a package deal. Ray's machinist has a service that he hydro forms 6 dasher

brass and I had him do 150 for me. He cut my chamber and the brass were formed

and the neck was turned. I am working powder load & seating depth as we speak.



(Precision Rifle and Tool)

Bat SB action Nightforce Rings

PR&T Low boy stock in Desert Camo Nightforce 15x55 comp scope(2014)

Brux barrel @ 30" 1.250

Jewel trigger @ 1.5 oz

That is one BEAUTIFUL piece of ordinance!! Their stocks a gorgeous! You picked an awesome caliber. I "assume" you got a 1-8Twist for the heavier projectiles? You will LOVE the rifle and the round!!
