It just arrived home this week, after almost a year of import process.

Luis, wow your rifle turned out great, definetly worth the wait. Your project gave me the idea for my rifles stock, I know you will like it very much.
 
Here's my latest LR varmint rig which i finished a couple of weeks ago.

Its a .257 Ackley Improved built around a Borden Timberline action, Duracoated and equipped with a Rifle Basix Trigger.
Barrel is a custom profile 26" Pac-nor 1-10 twist 5 groove carrying a Vais brake or Wildcat 8 baffle moderator.
This is all pillar bedded into an Olive drab Mcmillan Remington Varmint stock with PTG bottom metal.
Scope is a Sightron SIII 8-32x56 sitting in Leupold Dual Dovetail rings and bases, with the whole lot supported by a Versa-Pod bipod.

Here is my Remington 700 SPS-Varmint.
It wears a Bell & Carlson "Light tactical" stock,a 3lb trigger & A Nikon Monarch 6x24x50, factory barrel

Its a far cry from what most of you have posted, but it shoots pretty good for me with Black hills ammo.

Both groups were shot with RED BOX Black Hills Moly Coated 50gr V-maxes @ 100yards.

this is one of my better 5 shot groups. I then adjusted the windage and shot the top right bull.

This is a 5 shot group from yesterday that I wasn't sure weather to be happy or pissed off about.

Another PRIDE and JOY!!
Especially after this Elk season. Success muct have come from the gun; it could not have been the 'Nut behind the trigger'.
This is a 338 Snipe-tac, built by Dave Viers at Viersco.
What a great guy!! This is a 408 Chey-Tac necked down to a 338.
My Elk load this season was a 265gr Aluminum Tipped Bullet by R.G. Henson, pushed by 143.22gr of US869. MV was 3496fps,as recorded by my PVM-21), ME was right around the MACK TRUCK mark.
Impact at 424 yards destroyed the off shoulder of my Elk.
THE GUN:
LAWTON 32", CM, 1-11tw barrel
LAWTON 8000 Action
JEWELL HVRST trigger
MANNERS Tactical Stock
VIERSCO Muzzle Brake ,AWESOME)

Based on a Savage target action, a Maddco medium weight barrel and a Joel Russo,what a great bloke to deal with!) stock, this is my latest effort. During initial barrel break-in, with a 30grn load of AR2208 behind 85grn Sierra HPBT,bulk) projectiles it achieved a 1/2' group .... happy as !!
 
Here's my only long range rifle. It's nothing fancy, I'm on a budget and it took a year to get it to this point, but I'm enjoying it. It's a 700SPS Varmint .308 restocked with a HS stock. I installed a Rifle Basix trigger adjusted to around 1 1/2lb. It has a Buishnell Elite 4200 Tactical 6x24 with Ken Farrell rings and 30moa base and a Harris bipod. Right now I'm shooting 155 Berger VLDs in Gold Medal brass with 46gr of Varget.It's shooting around 1' for 5 shots at 200 and my few tries at 600 averaged 4'.

Long-hunter,

That's a beautiful gun. Maybe the most impressive Savage bench gun I've seen. But that's no ordinary McMillan Edge. It looks like an edge to the trigger guard, then forward of that it looks like an Adamowicz,Kelbly Klub) design. What's the story? Does Kelly McM have something new out there... or did someone do a lot of bondo work??

McMillan Edge:
