6.5 GAP 4S - SAUM

[Zhomeguy]

New build on a Stiller Predator SA, with a .296 no turn neck and 0.120 FB, Brux 3 w/ 1-8 twist at 24" and APA micro bastard brake. Manners EH2/3 ?
Jewell trigger at 1lb, creakoted, bedded, Hawkins bottom metal. 7lbs even. 3250$ This was 3rd chamber on this reamer, first two builds are running lights out tight at under .5 MOA with 140 Bergers. My few rounds of 130s also ran well but were all at barrel break in. This rifle hasn't been shot yet, because I can't stop shooting the others yet! LOL. 13 3/4 LOP, she looks pretty too! I might have some Talley 1 piece ultra light rings for 1" and 30mm, no promises on those but if I gottem they'll go with.

Who did the smithing?

 

[Zhomeguy]

John Bredderman at Ragged Hole Barrels, cut this chamber and assembled the rifle. He has built several of my SAUMs and they all shoot 1/2 MOA or better. John worked as a lead instructor at the Lassen School of Gunsmithing outside of Reno for a while, now runs his own succesful business. You can Google his business and he sells a TON of barrels. If your wanting a more well known name your likely to pay a lot more for a rifle, my 2 cents.

Bredderman is the man, does top notch work and runs a great shop. You won't be disappointed in this build, buy with confidence! Beautiful rig.

Dang she's pretty. The .257 weatherby, and the 6.5-280 AI
are very tempting as well, but I've been kicking around the idea of a 6.5 Saum lately. I'm excited to be checking this one out.
