Hoping build will result in a .5 MOA rifle for 140s and 160's. Action: 700 ADL or a Borden Barrel: #3 fluted some have talked about a Broughton, Brux or Pac Nor 24" measured forward of lug contemplating a proof or benchmark carbon barrel as well Twist Rate: 1:9 some have suggests 1:8.5 Stock: Mcmillan classic or hunter in edge filled or a manners (no experience with manners) Trigger: Jewell Bottom Metal: Suggests please will be in a ADL configuration to save weight Cerakote Graphite black with olive or tan stock with black webbing Thanks guys and help greatly appreciated. I kind want this to be my one gun for all and last build be all know how that goes lol [/QUOTE]
