[QUOTE="jcoop, post: 474980, member: 13125"] I have been working on this for a while trying to pick some pieces here and there. I robbed the stock off of my short action 300wsm and re inlet-ed, installed a new front pillar, then bedded and re painted it. I used a older savage flat back, small shank, RUM action. I installed a target accutrigger and tuned it to just under 1 lb. And in stalled a carbon fiber tension barrel. I finally got to shoot it last week and am very happy with the results (Under .5 moa with all loads tried some well under .5) all loaded at 3.775 coal for the mag box with 300 smks. I have worked it up to 93gr of retumbo with no pressure sings yet. Over all weight is 10.5lb with scope and sling no bi-pod. Recoil is really pleasant with no muzzle rise just straight back. Components Savage action Lone Wolf palma master carbon fiber stock 29" Mcgowan 338 edge barrel #4 pacnor contour then turned down a bit more to reduce weight. 1.25" baffle style muzzle brake modified for tension barrel 1.25" carbon Fiber tension tube EGW 20moa base Burris extreme rings low Bushnell 6500 elite 4-30x50 Jury is still out on this one. Flush mount sling swivels stockade custom bottom metal Accuracy mags 338 lapua mag modified all work and paint done by me. The black you see on the stock is actually the woven carbon fiber showing through a clear coat. You cant really see it in the pic [IMG]http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b23/tule-man/IMG_2147.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b23/tule-man/IMG_2148.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b23/tule-man/IMG_1420b.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
