What are you working on this winter?

Next I used an EGW 20MOA base that I had to drill out for 8 size screws. I used Burris XTR High rings to secure a Burris 6.5 X 20X 50MM scope and off to the range. I mounted a piece of rail to the forend of the stock to be able to mount a bipod or a sling. I loaded up some Nosler 100gr. HPBTs with some varget and off to the range.

And the trigger is a Shilen that I also purchased from a member on this site. It was too windy at 200 yds to test there so I settled for a 100 yds to see what this $100. barrel will do. I can't complain.

Thanks for taking the time to read my post. I had a lot of fun putting this together, and the results made it well worth it. Now I have to do the other barrel in 6.5 creedmore for my friend in Ohio.

Next I am going to run some Nosler 140 gr HPBT thru it and see how they shoot.
This was a Shilen barrel that started life as a 260 Rem. it has an 8 twist.
 
What I’m working on this winter is preparing for the transition from 600 to 1 k Benchrest shooting.
Still got a ways to go but WTH got nothing but time....
 
Several projects going the main one is a RR700 single shot action, Jewell trigger, Mcmillan stock, Brux barrel. A couple days before Christmas I was dumb enough to buy a Savage Striker, my first one and yes I know about the triggers. The last couple days I've been fiddling with the trigger. Yep its enough to make the Pope say it. Next time I go to town I need to pick up some piano wire for a new spring.
 
I have untoleranced Solidworks models for the components. example attached (I hope)
Your attachment shows up fine.

Is this your design? Would you be willing to share the design and provide some insight as to how it works - perhaps on a separate posting?
 
BC, that's really nice, I can't say I have ever seen one of those on the street. When I was younger a couple of my friends had VW busses to bum around in. That one is reallt different.
