[QUOTE="SOUTHTEXASBOY, post: 1240121, member: 91328"] Well I got bitten by the long range bug about a year ago so I decided to start the process of rounding up all the part to build my first full custom rifle, here are the list of parts used... Defiance deviant long action 30 Moa base Xlr Carbon chassis, 15 inch hand guard, folder, tactical lite butt stock, 338 CIP length mags Bartlein 28inch 1:8.5 twist R5 medium Palma contour barrel Night force ATACR 5-25x56 MOART reticle, Nightforce rings with bubble level cap Atlas PSR bipod Thunder beast arms Ultra 9 suppresser FDE (still in jail) I contacted Clayton Smith from West Texas Ordnance out in west Texas about putting it all together for me. With several phone calls back and forth I decided to go with the tried and trued 7 rem mag, pushing 180 Berger Hybrids. I sent him some pictures of the type of camouflage cerakote I was after and he came up with this design, I think it came out absolutely perfect. I started load development after breaking in the barrel and this is the best group I have so far, .2 vertical and .4 horizontal at 200 yards. I just need to load some more for verification. I'm using Norma brass, 215m primers, 71.5 grains H1000, .005 off the lands, going around 3000fps or so. All in all I can't explain how happy I am with the way it turned out and the way it is shooting so far. [/QUOTE]
