Post by X-Ring on Mon Aug 23, 2010 8:36 pm

I just finished my open rifle I will be competeing F-Class with. Did all the action, barrel smith work myself and inletting and finished the stock myself.
It is built on a Savage Target action right bolt left port, Krieger 28" 1:8 twist barrel chambered in
6.5x47 Lapua, Masterclass F-class Stock, Nightforce 12-42 benchrest scope. Will give a range report after I get to shoot it.

That is one beautiful rifle. My hat is off to you, sir.

Now, go kill something with it. I find that speeds up the man to gun bonding process.

Mighty Fine looking rifle. The Beautiful Stock makes the barrel look shorter than 28" though.
Thanks for sharing....

Thanks Mstrophyhunter for the loan of the reamer and borrowing one of your milling machines for a day. I hope it shoots half as good as your 6x47. Just got back from El Paso this afternoon, hadn't had a chance to load any rounds for it yet. Not going to shoot this weekend in the match. May try to go Sunday and start trying to break it in.
