Figured I would start this thread now that I'm finally making some progress.
As a new dad finding the money for a defiance, BAT or Stiller quality action would have been hard for me. So after a year of drooling over customs on here I decided to make my own custom. I will be machining the receiver and bolt myself. I purchased parts for extractor firing pin assembly etc.
So far I have the receivers OD finished, faced To +.002 to the lug face, bored to the thread minor, and drilled thru for a wire EDM start hole.
Over the weekend I finished the titanium bolt knob and titanium dual port "mini brake".
It will be chambered in 6.5 SS, I picked up the barrel prechambered from Rich.
