It has arrived and I have gone through the load testing phases..
The rifle is from RBros Rifles. Chambered in 30/338 Improved. Reamer is Travis' design.
Load that I have settled on for now is the 215 Hybrid with 98.5 grains of Retumbo pushing a velocity of 3430 fps..Validated..

Good on ya.

Good shooting with a good rifle and a good load. So satisfying.:D
 
Is the name Rogue? Or is it called Rouge which is another name for lipstick? Ha ha just had to comment on your spelling error. Sounds like a great rifle.
 
That's a good looking rifle! What's the total weight and barrel length? What are the specs on the Rouge cartridge? I'm assuming it's a 30-338 Lapua improved.

Weight is 11.5 lbs. Barrel is 28 plus the brake. 30/338 Lapua improved. Travis designed the reamer.
