I have a M12 that I built as a RFBR rifle this was project to see if one these rifles could be made into a competitive BR rifle. rifle will be 5 years old come September it has been a great project and even has an ARA UL win to its credit as well as numerous club match wins. a few 250 RBA targets.

Action- factory M12 that has had the action face trued, new rear action hole for a 1/4"-28 action screw, D/T for scope bases comes with Harrell's dovetail bases. bolt has 3/4-oz of weight added to the cocking piece to provide better pin hit (see example cases) scope and rings not included
Barrels - 1-28" 3G Benchmark with Nevius chamber. profile 1.0 for 3" then radius taper to .850 about 3500-4000 rds. shot
1- 24" 3G Heavy reverse taper Benchmark with Nevius chamber (currently on action). profile 1.0 for 3" then radius taper from.760 to .915 about 2000 rds. shot. with lighten Harrells tuner

Some additional pictures. target 1# is of some ammo testing the extra shots on some of the bulls were to make sure it wasn't the ammo. target 2# is 56 shots 1 shot at each bull from randomly selected rounds out of 4 different lots of Lapua. bedding bar used for bedding action the chambers forward of the front action screw hole are for tungsten particle which is filled into the chambers and the covered and sealed then bedded over. the tungsten is used to help with vibration.
