New personal rifle. LR BR/Tack Driver

[Alex Wheeler]

As is normal, I dont hold on to rifles very long and this is my new one to replace the one I just sold. Its basically the same setup. My new low profile stock in wood laminate painted white with an epoxy base. No one has ever asked for white and I just wanted to see how it would look. Its probably my favorite one I have owned so far, its really grown on me. I glued in a multi flat Bat B dual port. Stainless melonite action. I re cut the cocking ramp to get a little over .250" of firing pin fall, timed the action, blueprinted the ignition, lapped the lugs, fitted one of my over sized shrouds and used my new spring (similar to the old Bat spring). Thats the combo I like on my personal rifles. I put in a tuned up Bix n Andy as well. The barrel is a straight 1.250 Bartlien gain twist in a no turn 6 ppc for the tack driver. Then it will go back to LR BR work as a 6BRA and 257 Kulzer. I have some butt plates and rudders out for black anodize, I think they will look a little better. Just under 100 rounds of tuning on the barrel and its pretty close.

Now if you show up looking like this, that would be Cool.

Sweet, the black rudder and Butt plate will set it off too!

I have met you and I recall you were mostly black and white about things

I like the 30.0 and down target. Round groups. I also have a white ppc. You have the rifle, now you must love your flags. Good luck. If it's not a secret, twist and bullet weight?

I need to get my flags put up on my 300 meter range. I shot those blind today. Theres definitely some conditions in those groups. Gain twist 13.65-13.5 Jeff Peindhardt 65 grain.

The white looks sharp.

Looks great, the black rudder and butt will really set it off, tried to talk Jeff into melonite on his Lunar Rock DCLB.
Looking forward to seeing it once done.

Nice looking rig no doubt.

 

[Acyr]

Absolutely perfect. Understated elegance.

I still think blue accents, but it may get lost if there was a large amount of Miller cans around. Nice rent-a-rifle for sure!

My 6mmX47 Lapua. Love the white!

 

[Field_2_Fork]

Beautiful looking rifle! I saw a pic of it on another thread and held back from commenting about it, but seeing it a second time there's no way I couldn't say something. Really, really nice looking gun, and already a shooter by the look of it!

 

[Longrange57]

Love the white Alex!

The good guys always wear white hats.

 

[Murray Brook]

Looks great. The white just grows on you. That 29.5 group is great

What’s a 257 Kulzer?
Is the bolt face a ppc/BR?
