New 22 Creedmoor build

Killing Time

This is the 22 Creedmoor I have been working on for the last several weeks. The barrel is a 26" from Brad at Urbanrifleman, a Kauger CRS action, Tiggertech Primary trigger, Vortex Strike Eagle 5-25x56 FFP optic and a KRG Bravo chassis. I just had a chance to fire it today with some different loads I had loaded for it and I am very pleased with how it performed. Brad has been extremely helpful during this process with the hundreds of questions I have had. I have actually purchased a 6br barrel from him as well and waiting on my action from Kauger right now. I will post some pics of it one it is finished.

That stock is nice.

How are you loving that Kauger?
 
Let’s see some groups! Good looking rifle
I will definitely try to post some this weekend. The weather here in Tennessee has been very uncharacteristic lately and I haven’t had a chance to shoot any since my first outing with it. I have worked up some other loads for it that I want to try and the weather this weekend looks promising

Awesome group! 22 creed seems to be a win

This is the other groups I shot yesterday before I froze out. These are load development groups just trying to see what the gun likes. The first is a 88 gr ELD-M with 41.0 gr Superformance. Not too bad, especially with how Superformance is not supposed to like it cold. The second is again 88 gr ELD-M with 40.0 gr of StaBall 6.5. This load was a little too hot. I had signs of pressure from this one. And the last one is 73 gr ELD-M with 43.0 gr of StaBall 6.5. No signs of pressure with this one but I may back the charge down a little next time just to see if it tightens up the group. I have several rounds loaded to try with this gun and I'll be glad to show the results if you want. I've got some Bergers loaded that I have high hopes for.

What twist did you select for the barrel ?

It is a 1:8 twist 26" barrel, and howdy!
Killingtime -

Thanx for the info.

If you get the opportunity, try some FEDERAL GM-215M primers in your .22 Creedmoor loads.

They worked great in loads for my “ .22-35 Remington “ wildcat ( case capacity 49.4gr
H2O ).
