My new 1000 yd rifle

[Luckyshot]

Just finished my new 1000 yard benchrest/varmint fifle. I started on this project in December 2008. Hopefully it shoots as well as it looks. I ended up choosing the 7mm Remington mag with 180 gr JLK bullets. Don't have a load worked up yet. Any thoughts would be welcome.

Rifle looks great with the barrel block mounting! What barrel block did you get for such a tidy install?

I had Krieger chamber and install the barrel on a Lawton 7500 action. Then had Bill Shehane install a barrel bedding block. The stock is made by Richards Microfit. The stock needed quite a bit of sanding, which I did. Then I bedded it and finished it with clearcoat.

The trigger is a Jewell set at 3oz. The scope is a March 10-60x tactical.
