So what is your build for next year?

I'm having a Kelbly Black bear barreled action built with a 6mm BRA chambered 28" barrel, Bix and andy trigger, and another Bolt for .223 and barrel. Will put it in a Manners T4a stock and use a NF 15x55 DDR-2 Scope. I plan on switching barrels myself using for long range matches to 1000 yards.
 
I know it is kind of early as we still have the Nationals for UBR and several state championships coming up but I can't help but think of what I may want to do over the winter. As stated I shoot UBR short range 100 yards to 300 meters, I'm think I'll put a custom class (13.5 pound gun) gun together built on a Terry Leonard stock, BAT B action, Bartlien barrel with an Ezell tuner, jewell trigger with Dwight Scotts magic touch and probably another 6MM, My real dream is to have @Bc'z do a paint job on it! So tell me what discipline you shoot and what you are wanting to build.
im wanting to buy a bat action and build a short range bag gun. Not gonna build anything i havent got all the parts for allready though until i see wat happens with the component situation. i do have a nice R700 action and a new 6mm barrel for though. it will get put together into something like a LR bench gun. got enough other stuff to shoot to last me awhile.
 
One of the rifle builds for me this upcoming season in 2022 ,is going to be for the up coming Tack Driver III match in November ,I will be shooting against the best of the best, so I want to try and have something that will be competitive.I’m trying to build it around the bullets that I will be shooting.
I will be dedicating this one rifle to a 300 meter tune.

That looks like a Krieger barrel. Lol!

Which bullet you building around? Barts, VT, Berger, or your own?

Not a build, but I am concentrating on getting my own 6mm 103 grn VLD going for next year, mainly Tack Driver 3. We are getting close.

I am bound and determined to shoot my HV in 6BR next year Instead of my 6PPC. My last range session showed the best powders were Reloader 15 and N150. Both at a flat 2900 FPS.I just chambered up a new Bartlien 1-8, I will work it in this week end.

This long range 6MM bullet thing has been a real challenge. Our biggest modification to the process now is we are annealing the J-4 Jackets. It does seem to make a better bullet.
 
Well earlier this year Dos xx put his F/tr PRT stock up for sale on here at a price I couldn’t pass up, knowing it was going to cost me another $2700 or so to get it up and going again. That led me to calling up Jim Borden and ordering a BRM RBLPRE having it PVD coated with a BixAndy trigger on it. Just need to know what all the hype is about, at least that’s what I keep telling myself lol!!
 
well I just had my 7x33 Sako build completed on a savage axis action that was trued
and on an another savage build I put together a 375Bench Rest/Whisper..
for this coming spring/summer I have plans to build a 257 Kurz with a 26'' Wilson
barrel 10 twist
then I am putting together another bolt gun in 8x33 Kurz built on a savage action with
another Wilson barrel 24'' long 10 twist
and finally the last rifle to be built also built on a savage action is my 280 British with a Wilson barrel
at 26'' long 8 twist
 
I am not building a new rifle this year, at least not thinking of one as yet. Plan to work on my FTR rifles and upgrade components.

For example, moving my Pierce 308 from an Eliseo stock to McMillan XIT stock and changing the trigger. I will sell the Eliseo stock and buy another XIT for my Savage Precision Action .223.

There is a chance of changing my F-Open gun also.

Thanks, Mike

My next build with Zack is already on the burner. A hunter Rem model 7 Predator 30BR with a 1 - 15 Tw. for 125 gr. class bullets. Hoping to find a few Nosler 125 gr. B T & A B before next season rolls around.
