[QUOTE="archerross, post: 304820, member: 18909"] Hello all, I've been haunting this and other forums for some time and finally decided to intro myself. I am 35 y/o and currently working on an advanced degree at WSU in Pullman, WA. I've been reloading, shooting, and hunting since I was a kid in western PA and honed my spot and stalk skills on elk and big mulies while living in MT for a dozen years. I am obsessed with accuracy and finally took the big plunge into a custom rifle setup for long distance hunting and shooting. In March, my custom 6.5-284 LRH (long range hunter) built on a Ruger M77 Mark II action was completed. It sports a 26 inch #4 contour Brux 1:8.5 barrel, H.S. precision stock, custom muzzle brake, Zeiss Conquest 4.5-14 Rapid Z-800 scope, and Harris bipod. Comes in at about 11.5 lbs. Looks like I need to up date the picture. :D [IMG]http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss6/archerross/IMG_1036.jpg[/IMG] 142 gr SMK with H4831sc and Fed210M primers in Lapua brass is my goto load for long distance targets (out to 800 yds so far), strong 1/2 moa accuracy.
