Christiansen Arms ELR .338 Lapua with mods

[tbraly]

This is my first time to post. I have been reading on this forum for years. I finished the break in period on this gun and couldn't get it to shoot better than 1.5 MOA at 200 yards. I also thought the gun was too heavy for my Elk hunt in Montana so I swapped out the stock with a 20oz Proof and changed the trigger to a Calvin Elite and I am very satisfied all the way around. I had to open up the barrel channel and make room for the side bolt release, but this stock will work. I also bedded it with Devcon and it is rock solid. Even with the Nightforce NXS 5.5-22x56mm it is still barely over 9lbs and is shooting in less than a inch at 200 yards. I am waiting on my Kestrel 5700 4DOF so that I can stretch this thing out, but so far I love this gun!
